A very good first edition copy of the third book of Arthurian tales by T.H. White (1906-1964); fading to the spine its only fault.  Inspired by Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Artur, The Ill-Made Knight, about Sir Lancelot, follows The Sword in the Stone and The Witch in the Wood.  In 1958 the series was published as The Once and Future King.
