The Legend of the Holy Grail: Its Sources, Character and Development by Dorothy Kempe is a comprehensive study of the origins and evolution of the myth of the Holy Grail.

Kempe examines the symbolism and meaning of the Grail in different cultural contexts, tracing its evolution from a simple vessel to a powerful symbol of spiritual and mystical enlightenment. The book also delves into the characters associated with the Grail, including King Arthur, the Knights of the Round Table, and the mysterious figure of the Fisher King.
