The Book of Merlyn rounds off the story of the “Once And Future King” and tells the story how Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot come to their ends. The Book of Merlyn was written by T.H. White during his personal struggle with the question of whether to go to war against Nazi Germany. Here is an opportunity to see White’s mind at work. Even in addressing the profound issues of war and peace, The Book of Merlyn retains the life and sparkle for which White is known. The story moves with the impetus of poetry, farce, invention, and iconoclasm which marks his earlier work. White sent The Book of Merlyn to his London publisher in 1941. World War II and the attendant disruptions and paper shortages, as well as the intensity of the antiwar feeling White expresses, all contributed to the decision not to publish the book. Texas Press discovered the manuscript in the archives of the Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas at Austin in 1975. The Book of Merlyn is the true last chapter of The Once and Future King.
