This is an interesting little book. I read it as part of my children's literature course back in 1999. The book is partially Arthurian Legend, part social commentary and part farce.
I did not like the inappropriate references for the time of the story, trains, buses ... As well I didn't appreciate the mixing of Robin Hood (Wood) in the 12th Century with Arthur of the 6th Century.
Yet all in all it was a fun book - easy to read.

Pretty much everyone has seen the Disney cartoon, but T.H. White's The Sword in the Stone is a story that must be read. Nowhere in the movie do you get delicious bits like:

Or how about the casual mention of Merlin in running shorts ... Merlin knitting his beard into the nightcap he's making ... Merlin's dishes washing themselves up, shouting, ... Read More

Finding a COMPLETE version of this book is difficult. When the Sword and the Stone was grafted onto the rest of the series to form the Once and Future King, T.H.

Where was the wizard's duel between Merlyn and Madam Mim? Surely, Disney didn't come up with that on their own.
Well, the truth is these lost parts are still out there if ... Read More

This is the first part of the Once and Future King series of novels.
Wart, a young boy, initially has no idea who he really is. This is the
story of this young lad, and the events and lessons and trials that
lead to him becoming a leader. Of course, it details the bumbling and
accidents that lead him to drawing The Sword in the Stone.
