Book Description
Although nearly everyone has heard the name of Robin Hood, few have actually read any medieval tales about the legendary outlaw. Stephen Knight and Thomas Ohlgren set out to correct this discrepancy in their comprehensive collection of all pre-seventeenth-century Robin Hood tales. The editors include such other "outlaw" figures as Hereward the Wake, Eustache the Monk, and Fouke le Fitz Waryn to further contextualize the tradition of English outlaw tales. In this text the figure of Robin Hood can be viewed in historical perspective, from the early accounts in the chronicles through the ballads, plays, and romances that grew around his fame and impressed him on our fictional and historical imaginations. This edition is particularly useful for classrooms, with its extensive introductions, notes, and glosses, enabling students of any level to approach the texts in their original Middle English.

Book Description
Ho for the good green wood! Ho for brave Robin Hood! The adventures that flowed from the pen of Alexandre Dumas are well loved. Less known today are his tales of Robin Hood. It is our pleasure to provide these two old works to a new public: readers of the 21st Century. English versions of "The Prince of Thieves" and "Robin Hood the Outlaw" have virtually disappeared from bookshelves; they are now edited, corrected, and made accessible to the world in print and e-formats, by the Reginetta Press. This volume continues the story begun in "The Prince of Thieves." Read more of Robin and Marian's romance, and learn of Robin's unlucky betrayal by a woman; of Robin's valiant leadership of the Merrie Men including Little John, Will Scarlett, and Friar Tuck; their battles against the Sheriff of Nottingham ─ and the craven Prince John. Outwitting crafty ecclesiastics along the way, Robin at last bows to King Richard Coeur-de-Lion. Retold in Alfred Allinson's lush translation from the original French, the hero's adventure winds to a stirring conclusion.

Book Description
Stories of the outlaw archer Robin Hood reach back to medieval times. However, movies, books, comic books, and television shows about him still populate our popular culture. Readers will not only become absorbed by the legend of the folk hero, complete with his Merry Men and the evil Sheriff of Nottingham, they'll be intrigued by the debate about whether Robin Hood is based on a real person. Famous illustrations and fun facts abound in this high-interest volume.
