London: Collins, 1958. First edition of the single volume of White's Arthurian trilogy,  Octavo, original cloth. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. A very sharp example, rare in the original dust jacket. T.H. White's masterful retelling of the saga of King Arthur is a fantasy classic as legendary as Excalibur and Camelot, and a poignant story of adventure, romance, and magic that has enchanted readers for generations. "This ambitious work will long remain a memorial to an author who is at once civilized, learned, witty and humane" (Times Literary Supplement).

The Once and Future King is a novel by T. H. White that chronicles the saga of King Arthur. It is composed of several works that were written separately and later compiled into the full version known today. This modern Arthurian legend is recognized for its unique combination of chivalry, legend, and a touch of whimsy, presenting a 'once' traditional medieval world that eventually evolves into a 'future' reflective of contemporary society.
