Book Description
Merlin, seer and wonder-worker at King Arthur’s court, makes his debut in the “History of the Kings of Britain”. One of the most influential books of the Middle Ages, it planted Arthur himself in European minds. Despite his ‘supernatural’ status, it is Merlin, of all the great characters of the Arthurian world, who has the claims to having existed.
