Life of King Arthur from Ancient Historians and Authentic Documents (1825)

The curious work now offered to the world was prepared by Mr. Ritson, with a view to immediate publication, a short time before his death; and the character of the writer is sufficiently established to justify the editors hope of its favorable reception. The difficulty of the subject may be partly estimated from doubts having been actually entertained by the author, during his early researches, as to the identity of his hero, and fears lest the real Arthur might not, after all, be found. Contents: The Life of King Arthur; Extracts from the lives of Welsh Saints; The answer of the Abbot of Bangor to Augustine, the monk, word for word in Welsh & English; British & Welsh saints; Cornish Saints; Breton Saints.
