| Summary | "Stories of King Arthur and His Knights" by U. Waldo Cutler is a retelling of the Arthurian legends presented as a collection of stories. The work draws upon the earlier texts of Sir Thomas Malory's "Morte d'Arthur" and was likely written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of chivalry, honor, and adventure, centered around the legendary figures of King Arthur, the Knights of the Round Table, and their quests, including quests for Excalibur and the Holy Grail. At the start of this retelling, the narrative introduces King Arthur's lineage, detailing how he was born to King Uther Pendragon and Igraine, with the pivotal role of the magician Merlin in Arthur's destiny. As Uther falls sick after marrying Igraine, Merlin takes Arthur for safe upbringing. The story unravels the tension surrounding Arthur's claim to the throne, depicting a legendary sword bound in a stone that only the rightful king can pull out. Arthur's successful extraction of the sword signifies his destiny to rule, setting the stage for his adventures and the formation of the noble Round Table, where he will gather his famous knights to uphold justice and chivalry in England.
