Beschreibung

What if everything you ever knew about Robin Hood was wrong? He wasn’t a nobleman. He never met Maid Marian. He didn't go on Crusade. And he absolutely did not rob from the rich to give to the poor.

For the first time, the information that medieval historians have about Robin Hood is made available to a popular audience. Why Everything You Know about Robin Hood Is Wrong is an illuminating, entertaining and really quite sarcastic trip through what we actually do know about one of England’s most famous heroes.

Meet the many candidates to be ‘the real Robin Hood’:

  • Eustace, monk-turned-pirate
  • Hereward, landowner-turned-bandit
  • Fulk, noble-turned-outlaw

and discover why none of them actually was.

Find out how Maid Marian came over from France and how she was, ahem, intimately connected with Friar Tuck.

And learn out more than you ever wanted to know about medieval hoods.
