2017 Porsche 911 Carrera - $89,400. The cost of a new Porsche 911 continues to creep upwards, but thankfully, you can still get a base-model 911 Carrera for less than $100,000. But don't let the fact it's a base model fool you. You're still getting a serious sports car. Its 370-horsepower engine is enough to hit 60 mph in as little as 4.0 seconds.
The original story of King Arthur was written in the 12th-century and was included in a book called The History of the Kings of Britain, written by Geoffrey of Monmouth. Much of the book was taken from earlier sources and some was invented by Geoffrey himself.
The story of King Lear and his three daughters is an old tale, well known in England for centuries before Shakespeare wrote the definitive play on the subject. The first English account of Lear can be found in the History of the Kings of Britain, written by Geoffrey Monmouth in 1135. Monmouths account spawned several 16th-century narratives about Lear, including renderings in Holinshed's Chronicles (first edition, 1577) and in The Mirror for Magistrates (1574).
