Pyle, Howard. [Story of champions of the round table.] [**]$2.50. Scribner.
“A companion volume to Mr. Pyle’s ‘Story of King Arthur and his knights,’ illustrated as that was with wood cuts admirably suited in manner and tone to the pseudo-antique style of narrative in which the deeds of Sir Launcelot and his fellow-knights are retold.... To boys not too young and of the right imaginative cast of mind the book should have the fascination which Malory’s tales still have for a like class of elder readers.”
