As a journalist he was also responsible, (albeit unknowingly), for creating the still-popular legend of \u003cem\u003eThe Angel of Mons\u003c\/em\u003e. Machen was born at Caerleon in Wales, and in later life turned his attention to Celtic legend and its ability to transform and inspire our dull reality. \u003cem\u003eThe Secret Glory\u003c\/em\u003e is a semi-autobiographical tale of Ambrose Meyrick, whose mundane existence as a reluctant pupil in an English upper-class 'public school' is transfigured by his search for the Holy Grail of Arthurian legend. But every revelation comes at a price - and Meyrick's triumph in eventually finding the Grail leads him unwittingly to a macabre and grisly fate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68298384998623,"sku":"9781909735378","price":14.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/vWhHuWHuBj9781909735378.webp?v=1792986699","url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/products\/the-secret-glory-paperback-1","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
