While best known for his translations of classical literature and as a collector of folk and fairy tales, Lang also wrote poetry, biographies, histories, novels, literary criticisms and even children's books. Lang describes romances as a mixture of popular tales, of literary invention and of history as transmitted in legend and in his opinion are only fairy tales for grownups. This volume is a collection of Tales of the Round Table, The Battle of Roncevalles, The Pursuit of Diarmid, Some Adventures of William Short Nose, Wayland the Smith, The Story of Robin Hood and The Story of Grettir the Strong.
