About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 54 full-page plates by Richard Ansdell, John Gilbert and Edwin Landseer. Sherwood as a place where the year is always early summer and the worst that happens to anybody is a broken head and a fine dinner. Pyle wrote and illustrated it at twenty-nine, going back to the old ballads and stitching them into one story; every later Robin Hood, on the page or the screen, is working from his version rather than the originals. Fifty-four plates by painters including Henry Bright and Alfred Vickers carry the greenwood's open-air world into the book, from Windsor Castle to the banks of Arrochar.
