    About this ebook

    This book is a translated version of 'Perceval, the Story of the Grail', which was originally written in Old French by the author Chrétien de Troyes in the late 12th century. This book is the earliest recorded account of what was to become the Quest for the Holy Grail but describes only a golden grail (a serving dish) in the central scene, does not call it "holy" and treats a lance, appearing at the same time, as equally significant.
