Présentation de l'éditeur
The rousing tale of a young boy from Nottingham, Dickon - made an outlaw for killing one of the king's deer - and his fight against injustice. This classic work captures the clash between rich and poor in medieval England and, above all, tells a new story of the common people's great leader, Robin Hood of Sherwood Forest, here presented as he might have been. Thirty years after its appearance, the author revised the text into this definitive version. Accompanying the text, are the striking illustrations of Kate Greenaway Award-winning artist, C. Walter Hodges, specially commissioned for the 30th anniversary edition.
