This book presents an attempt to bring together what may be accepted with regard to the personality and actual life of King Arthur, while putting aside everything that is obviously or probably fabulous.
W. Howship Dickinson endeavoured to give due weight to the evidence, both positive and negative, rather than to work up to a pre-determined conclusion. With regard to the evidence of a positive kind, if so it may be called, especial weight has been given to the details of topography, more particularly in Cornwall, with the Arthurian localities of which the author happened to be more familiar than with those elsewhere.

I watch the 2004 'King Arthur' film on DVD last night. I'd look forward to seeing it and been seduced by the trailers on TV. At the end I could barely believe that so much potential could be so dismally wasted. I've written a long comment on IMDB so I'm not going to say much here.Given a choice between a couple of hours of ironing or watching 'King Arthur' again I'd have to choose the ironing.Stellan Skarsgaard is the one redeeming feature - brilliant and menacing as the leader of the Saxons.(c) Hal Westhead 2005
