In this story of Roland as the author proposes to tell it, he
introduces you to some of the most pleasing of those tales of
France. The poems and legends which embody them were written in
various languages, and at widely different times; but in them two
names, Charlemagne and Roland, are of very frequent occurrence.
Roland, the nephew of the Charlemagne of romance, and his companion
in all great enterprises, is unknown to history. Yet he is the
typical knight, the greatest hero of the middle ages. His story is
not a mere transcript of the old romances. Illustrated.
