Description:

Hank Morgan finds himself transported backnbsp;to England's Dark Agesnbsp;— where he is immediately captured and sentenced to death at Camelot. Fortunately, he's quick-witted, and in the process of saving his life he turns himself into a celebrity — winning himself the position of prime minister as well as the lasting enmity of Merlin.
