Robin Hood : green lord of the wild wood

Matthews, John, 1948-2016
Books, Manuscripts
The identity of Robin Hood has been questioned many times since the Outlaw of Sherwood first sprang to fame in the 12th century. No two authorities seem able to agree as to his origins, antecedents, or even whether or not he was a historical personage or a mythical figure. This is the only contemporary book to fully explore the mythology of Robin Hood rather than concentrating on the human identity of the famous outlaw.
