      Amid a raft of Arthurian literature--from period source references to discussions of legacy--Reno (Historic King Arthur) offers a guide with both scholarly rigor and popular appeal. Through meticulous research, he has profiled the objects, locations, characters, and actual historical figures related to Arthurian legend, including those with only tenuous associations. While this is a valuable literary resource and sophisticated character crib sheet, it is intended to facilitate the separation of fact from fiction. Alphabetized entries of various lengths reveal alternate name spellings and the subject's contributions to Arthuriana. Shorthand bibliographic references close each entry. Essential for literary and Britannia collections.
