The Hooded Archer

The first literary references to Robin Hood appear at the start of the 14th century in a series of ballads about a violent yeoman who lived in Sherwood Forest with his men and frequently clashed with the Sheriff of Nottingham. Rather than a peasant, knight, or fallen noble, as in later versions, the protagonist of these early medieval stories is a commoner.The Hooded Archer: Outlaw of Sherwood weaves a tale around the man many scholars believe was the foundation for the legend of Robin Hood. Using historical references and compelling characters, the story will immerse the reader in 13th-century medieval England. Transport yourself to Sherwood and follow the man who must oppose a tyrannical king to whom he once showed undying loyalty.
