The Adventures of Robin Hood: Illustrated by Walter Crane - Hardcover
$20.00
by Roger Lancelyn Green (Author), Walter Crane (Illustrator)
The stories of the English folk hero and medieval outlaw Robin Hood presented in stunning hardcover.
As legend would have it, Robin Hood lived in the days of Richard the Lionheart and Prince John and, with his band of merry men, fought injustice and tyranny. This retelling of the Robin Hood stories, first published in 1956, has become an acknowledged classic: a literary mosaic in which Roger Lancelyn Green has brought together material from the old ballads, romances and plays, as well as retellings of Noyes, Tennyson, Peacock and Scott. "For Robin Hood's is a story that can never die," he wrote, "nor cease to fire the imagination. Like the old fairy tales it must be told and told again--for like them it is touched with enchantment..." Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, and European-style half-round spines.Author Biography
