This remarkable book assembles all that is known or can be deduced about the most shadowy period of British history since the Roman occupation and about its legendary hero. The author of it is the archaeologist who directed the famous excavations at Cadbury Castle in Sonerset, originally identified with Camelot by Leland. L. Alcock sifts history from myth to create a convincing picture of life between the fourth and seventh centuries, when Celtic Britain was abandoned by the legions to the Picts, Scots and Anglo-Saxons.
