The Vulgate Cycle of the Holy Grail is a book by Arthur Edward Waite that provides a complete English translation of the Vulgate Cycle, a medieval French text that tells the story of the Holy Grail. The Vulgate Cycle is a collection of five texts: the Estoire del Saint Graal, the Merlin, the Lancelot, the Queste del Saint Graal, and the Mort Artu. Together, these texts tell the story of the Holy Grail from its origins in the Old Testament to its final resting place in Britain. Waite's translation is faithful to the original text, and includes extensive notes and commentary to help readers understand the historical and literary context of the story.
