Join the legendary outlaw of Sherwood Forest in this vibrant 1963 edition of The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, beautifully reissued by Golden Press. Howard Pyle’s classic retelling brings to life the daring exploits of Robin Hood and his band of merry men as they rob from the rich, give to the poor, and challenge the injustice of Prince John’s rule.
Told in rich, rhythmic language and styled after old English ballads, Pyle’s version remains one of the most beloved interpretations of the Robin Hood legend. Readers will encounter familiar favorites—Little John, Friar Tuck, Maid Marian, and Will Scarlet—through tales of archery contests, forest ambushes, noble rescues, and outlaw revelry.
This Golden Press edition combines Pyle’s timeless storytelling with accessible formatting, often featuring period-inspired illustrations that echo the book’s medieval charm. Perfect for young readers, family shelves, or collectors of vintage classics, The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood remains a rousing tribute to heroism, justice, and adventure.
