Transl. by A.W. Pollard.. "In two volumes bound as one.
'Here in this big, beautiful book is one of the two magnificent renderings of Malory into modern spelling. Ernest Rhys did one and later A.W. Pollard did the one we present here just as it was printed in crown quarto in 1920 for the Medici Society. We have preferred Pollard to Rhys only because Pollard stands on Rhys' shoulders and, as the readers will see for himself, Pollard is beautifully printed in the Medici Society edition. You will read Malory most intelligently and most enjoyably if you keep clear that it was written as a series of works and not as a single tale....'
