Adventures of Robin Hood

Adventures of Robin Hood Review

"Adventures of Robin Hood" is a classic tale of social justice and outrageous cunning. Robin Hood, who is oppressed by 12th century England, shines forth as champion of the poor and against the cruel power of Prince John and the brutal Sheriff of Nottingham. Taking refuge with his Merrie Men in the vast Sherwood Forest, Robin Hood emerges time and time again to outwit his enemies with daring and panache. "Adventures of Robin Hood" clearly represents a form of hedonism, and in his company there is never a lack of action, adventure, or for that matter - ale. There is no end to the accomplishments of muscles and mind, as Robin and his merry band outwit all comers by sheer physical skill in archery, wrestling, swordmanship, and quarter-staff combat, or by outsmarting them with deceit and disguise. To our delight, Robin's brawn and brains always come out on top at the end. Along with the tales of King Arthur, the "Adventures of Robin Hood" are the most exciting tales that British history has produced. This retelling of Robin Hood's adventures, written by J. Walker McSpadden and published in 1891, will not disappoint.
