His “Morte d’Arthur” is a must-read.

Thank you, I never got further than this:
Alfred, Lord Tennyson wrote both “Locksley Hall” and “Locksley Hall Sixty Years After”. “Locksley Hall,” published in 1842, expresses a young man’s desire for adventure and progress, while “Locksley Hall Sixty Years After,” published in 1886, reflects on the disappointment of that progress and the disillusionment of a later, more industrialized Britain.

Idylls of the King.

Tennyson held the position of Poet Laureate.

Sorry, but he wrote IDYLLS OF THE KING, NOT Morte de Arthur! The later was written by Sir Thomas Malory.

Both are well worth the read!
