There are many phases to the book writing process, but one of my favorites is when I finally have a typed manuscript in hand, and I know it won’t be long before I’m able to share it with the world and hope they embrace it and love it as much as I do. Have you read this one? It ultimately became “THE WISDOM OF MERLIN: 7 Magical Words for a Meaningful Life.”
Seriously, my Grumpious Artorius can’t be expressed with enough vehemence to match my annoyance this edition has no English translation.
I took Italian in undergrad, decades ago…it operates on the same level as my Spanish with my Latino patients–not helpful, but spoken with enough ineptitude to get me in trouble…
I wonder if Kindle does auto-translate? What I’ve read from the summery and reviews in GoogkeTranslate makes this sound intriguing–the kind of story of ArtoriusCastus I’ve been looking for, set solidly in the late 2nd century RomanEmpire/Roman-Britain…
I’ve heard of this book (from Italian arthurian forums).
There’s no ebook of this, I can’t seem to find it. Let me know if you need any help in translating, as I am Italian.
When Will (@nerdtastick) and I took our trip to Dayton, OH last week, we happened upon a used book store called Bonnett’s Book Store while walking around. As we were leaving, I saw a copy of The Boy’s King Arthur by Sidney Lanier wrapped in plastic, just sitting on one of the many piled-high shelves, as if it was just waiting for me. It cost only USD $9, and Will, being the amazing person he is, bought it for me (even though I was ready, willing, and able to buy it for myself). The owner informed me that the first two pages were loose, and that it was best just to leave them that way rather than trying to fix them myself.
The volume is the 1917 edition (!!) and comes with all of the original artwork by N.C. Wyeth. I’ve posted photos of a few of them, along with the pages they face. As you can probably see from the photos, the condition is not the greatest, but honestly, for $9, it’s an amazing find and to me it’s an absolute treasure.
