Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The truth behind the romance and legends of Excalibur, the Holy Grail and the site of the real Avalon.

For fifteen hundred years, King Arthur has remained a mystery. For the first time, King Arthur - The True Story discovers the historical King Arthur, his Camelot and his final resting place. The authors uncover vital evidence for Arthurs historical existence. Centuries of myth are peeled away to reveal the truth behind the romance, and the Grail and Excalibur legends. The search for Arthurs Camelot leads to ancient ruins in the heart of Britain - a Dark Age city recently unearthed by archaeologists. A medieval manuscript in Oxfords Bodleian Library finally identifies King Arthurs burial site: the real Avalon.

Synopsis:

Recent archaeological discovery and textual analysis of original sources led the authors to search for the true King Arthur. "Arthur", they conclude, is merely a title, and his true name Owen Ddantgwyn. They also identify his burial place as a mound called The Berth, north-west of Shrewsbury.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. [204]-207) and index.
