4-6Eyewitness Classics series.
Illustrated by
Tudor Humphries.
Published spring 1998. King Arthur is a good introduction to the legends and the few facts surrounding King Arthur. Aladdin gives lively retellings of several of the tales of The Arabian Nights. Both volumes are laid out in recognizable Eyewitness style, with numerous photographs, reproductions, and sidebars in addition to the illustrations; though interesting, the information is ultimately distracting.
