Robin Hood and His Adventures
by Paul Creswick
Illustrations by N.C. Wyeth
[1903]
|
This is Paul Creswick's able retelling of the Robin Hood myth.
The Robin Hood narrative first surfaced as a
short mention in Piers Plowman, and accreted details
through folk-tales, ballad,
literature, and of course, cinema.
Like other English literary productions such as King Arthur or Sherlock Holmes,
the fact that Robin Hood is a fiction is almost irrelevant; people
want to believe that he was an actual historical personage.
Creswick's version of this tale brings it to life, and
the luminous Wyeth illustrations complete the picture.
