This book presents a posthumous collection of previously uncollected works of political theory written by Whittle Johnston. Johnston believed that both the liberal tradition of political thought and the realist tradition of international thought had contributed much to humanity's store of political wisdom, but that each had limitations that could most easily be recognized by its encounter with the other. His method of accomplishing this task was to examine the liberal conception of political life in general and international political life in particular and then to explore the realist critique of the liberal view, particularly as it was expressed by three great twentieth-century realist thinkers, all of whom were, in their various ways, skeptical of liberal assumptions: Reinhold Niebuhr, Hans Morgenthau, and E. H. Carr. In doing so, Johnston reveals the power of the realist outlook, but also the areas in which it remains insufficient, and insufficient particularly where it underestimates the complexity and prudence that liberalism is capable of displaying. There have been studies of both liberalism and realism, but no other work has put them into conversation with each other in the way that this book does.

The battle for power in the Celtic kingdom of Britannia, reaches a climax when families turn against each other and the most trustworthy can no longer be trusted. It is the sixth century and the growth of immigrants threaten the Celtic way of life for the wealthy and elite. It appears that only one man, King Arthur, can reunite the divided parties, but he has been lured into a untimely war with the Romans. When he is away fighting in Gaul (France) his wife Guinevere seizes her chance at power. Guinevere's great rival is Morgan Le Fay, she becomes embroiled with the Gods of Avalon when she asks for their help. Vivienne, the Goddess of the lake, helps her in her quest, but has her own selfish agenda. Vivienne allows her special creatures, the fairies, to assist Lady Morgan and in so doing changes the balance of power throughout the land. Eros, the King of the fairies, undergoes a physical transformation, while others including Guinevere and Morgan undergo a more spiritual one. Steeped in intrigue and double dealing the protagonist, Lady Morgan, doesn't know who to trust as friend begin to betray friend. Against a background of fear and loathing the story of Joseph of Arimathea's Holy treasure unfolds. All the main characters are after the Holy Grail, but who will capture it? Is the treasure even real, or only a legend? This is volume one of a trilogy of quests, as the well known Arthurian characters battle; magic, gods, dragons, war, famine, mystery and witchcraft to find their objectives. The work is inspired by many great writers who have in the past, put pen to paper to bring adventure and life to the medieval myth of King Arthur. Such authors include: Malory, Geoffrey of Monmouth, Chretien de Troyes, Tennyson and go on up to recent times with Tolkien, C.S.Lewis and Marion Bradley. The most recent mentioned, explores the proto-feminist priestess of Avalon (Morgan Le Fay). This trilogy will follow on from that. The battle of good versus evil, Christianity versus Paganism continues but the definition has now become blurred. Who is good and who is evil becomes impossible to distinguish as we see unfold a whole new world.
