198,95 kr. A prolific author, J. Walker McSpadden has written Robin Hood which begins with No man is allowed to shoot deer there without risking death. Sherwood and Barnesdale forests, which are close to Nottingham, were among the greatest royal preserves. Hugh Fitzooth resided here for a while with his devoted wife and son Robert. The youth days fly by far too quickly, and gloomy skies arrive far too soon. Hugh Fitzooth was abruptly fired from his position as King's Forester. The Sheriff and Bishop of Hereford dispossessed him, his wife, and Rob, who was 19 at the time. Before his accusers could agree on the allegations on which he would be tried, his father passed away in custody. Rob yearned for his former way of life in the woods and his father's company. And it was Maid Marian! She had traveled from the Queen's court in London to pay her father, the Earl of Huntingdon, a visit. Rob could feel the steely, tensed, and true bands forming in his muscles. His heart would pound, causing him to tremble in the strangest way.
