This abridgment of a book first published in 1902 about the justice-minded outlaw Robin Hood and his motley band of followers in Sherwood Forest is accompanied by Wyeth's dramatic full-page paintings. The old-fashioned-sounding prose may put off some readers; but for others with a ken for adventure stories, this picture book-size edition should fit the bill.

Based on the Paul Creswick telling of Robin Hood and drawing from the rich and varied lore surrounding the beloved outlaw, this spirited reworking of Robin Hood’s many adventures is a vibrant introduction to Friar Tuck, Little John, Maid Marian, the Sheriff of Nottingham, and, of course, Robin Hood, the hero whose generosity and sense of justice has captivated readers for eight hundred years.

This collectible edition includes a soft-touch cover, gold foiling, and N.C. Wyeth’s original oil paintings.
