In the lush thickets of Sherwood Forest hides one of the most beloved—and feared—figures of the universal imagination. Howard Pyle, an unparalleled storyteller and renovator of Anglo-Saxon youth literature, gave definitive form to this medieval legend in a work that, over time, has managed to settle into the souls of entire generations. This book not only narrates the adventures of an outlaw who steals from the rich to help the poor; it is an epic about justice, courage, and loyalty. Robin Hood, an unbeatable archer and free-spirited knight, becomes a symbol of resistance against the abuse of power and a defender of the dispossessed in a cruel and ruthless England.
Howard Pyle was an American illustrator, painter, and author, primarily of books for young people. He was a native of Wilmington, Delaware, and he spent the last year of his life in Florence, Italy.
