Merry Adventures of Robin Hood

The classic collection of the tales of Robin Hood, the bow-wielding hero who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. Howard Pyle has provided possibly the best and most complete rendering of this classic tale of the famous yeoman-thief of Sherwood Forest. Each chapter of this collection offers new and exciting stories, including the famous scenes of Little John and his staff besting Robin on the bridge, Robin winning the golden arrow at the Sheriff of Nottingham's archery contest, his complicity with courageous Will Scarlet and musical Alan-a-Dale, the continual outsmarting of the Sheriff, and many others. Robin Hood continues to stand as an exemplary model of fair play, generosity, and compassion.
