DNF- as much as the way Legends appeared around Charlemagne is fascinating, these are really boring for me to read. Not keen on forcing myself through the stories.

An attempt to bring Roland et al to the readers of the nineteenth century, "expurgated of all that would be offensive". Skip it and find a translation of the originals.

I found this book in a used bookstore and for weeks I was immersed in this book and revisiting familiar myths and learning new ones. Every now and then I take down from the shelve and browse.
