This magical account of King Arthur's last night on earth spent weeks on the New York Times Best-seller List following its publication in 1977.


Even in addressing the profound issues of war & peace, The Book of Merlyn retains the life & sparkle for which White is known. The tale brings Arthur full circle, an ending, White wrote, that "will turn my completed epic into a perfect fruit, 'rounded off & bright & done'."
