ill., br. Fuorilegge esperto nel tiro con l'arco, circondato dai suoi allegri compagni vestiti di verde e sempre pronto a festeggiare con banchetti, canti e balli, Robin Hood è uno dei personaggi più popolari della letteratura inglese a partire dal Medioevo. Nobile decaduto che vive nei boschi, nemico dei ricchi ma sempre pronto ad aiutare chi ne ha bisogno, Robin coltiva il segreto desiderio di riconquistare la grazia presso il re, senza tuttavia rinunciare a scherzi e beffe nei confronti dei suoi nemici. Un libro che raccoglie alcune delle storie più antiche di Robin Hood per ricostruire l'origine di una leggenda indimenticabile.
