1. The Tale of King Arthur; 2. Sir Tristam de Lyonesse; 3. The Morte D’Arthur.
The Tale of King Arthur tells how Arthur first beacme king by pulling the sword out of the stone, how he established his kingdom in battle, and formed the Round Table.
Sir Tristram de Lyonesse concentrates mainly on the story of Tristram, his battles for Cornwall, his love for Isolde and thetreacherous behaviour of King Mark.
The Morte D’Arthur contains perhaps the most famous tales of all: the quest for the Holy Grail, the adventures of Bors, Perceval and Galahad, betrayed by envious Mordred and Aggravaine, whose love brings about the destruction of Arthur’s kingdom.
