Historic Figures of the Arthurian Era: Authenticating the Enemies and Allies of Britains Post-Roman King

Frank D. Reno
4.9/5 (13406 ratings)
Description:While literature is replete with tales of King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table, pinpointing the identity of the real King Arthur has proven to be a vexing chore for historians. In separating the fiction from the history, the author demonstrates in an earlier McFarland book that the true Arthur was a Celtic king of post-Roman Britain who lived in the late fifth and early sixth centuries. In an effort to further authenticate the Celtic Arthur as the legendary king, the author examines here the roles of six major figures of the period from A.D. 383 to 518-Vortimer, Vitalinus, Cunedda, Cerdic, Octha, and Mordred. Through an extensive analysis of Arthur's 12 battles listed in the Historia Brittonum, this work explores not only the influences of the High King's allies, but also examines the switch of allegiance by some Britons who joined forces with Arthur's enemies. A battle list is included that provides possible geographic locations for each of the battles, including a new site for Arthur's fateful battle at Camlann determined by the author's firsthand research.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
