Short History Of Robin Hood - A Pocket Essential (Rennison Nick)(Paperback / softback)

Was there ever a real Robin Hood? Nick Rennison looks at the candidates who have been proposed over the years, from petty thieves to Knights Templar, before moving on to examine the many ways in which Robin Hood has been portrayed in literature and on the screen.
