Robin Hood (3rd Edition)

Professor Sir James Holt's definitive work on the legend of Robin Hood, published in 2016, delves into the historical origins of the tale. He argues that the tale originated with noblemen and gentry in the later Middle Ages, with parts like Maid Marian, Friar Tuck, and Robin as a robber and giver added over time. Holt's work is highly recommended for armchair swashbucklers, as it offers a comprehensive analysis of the historical basis of the stories while preserving the human imagination that sustained them.
