The man, the legend, and now the audiobook. One of the greatest stories of all time! More than nine-and a half hours of listening. The story of Robin Hood was re-told on the big screen in 2010, with Russell Crowe and Cate Blachett in the lead roles. However, this audiobook is not associated with that or any other of the various movie or TV adaptations. It is the classic Robin Hood story, as told by Paul Creswick. It's all here: the story of how Robin lost his birthright as the King's Ranger at Locksley; his archery feats at Nottingham; the outlaws' war with the Sheriff; Robin's pursuit of Marian; and many tales of bravery, rescue, laughter, and rivalry with Little John, Friar Tuck, Allan-a-Dale, Much the Miller, Will Scarlett, and all the others. Now you can have this incomparable story read to you, in a gripping full stereo audiobook. The story presented here is adapted from the Paul Creswick text. It is faithful to the entire original story, but with the language updated for the 21st-century listener.

Taking from the rich and giving to the poor, Robin Hood and loyal followers fight for the oppressed against the evil Sheriff of Nottingham. Written in graphic-novel format.

I N all English history, be it true or be it legendary, no hero stands out in bolder, clearer relief than the outlaw Robin Hood. Was he a real Englishman the tales of whose achievements are based upon real deeds } Is the name but a chance selection around which clusters the English portion of those legends of strength and valor that have come down to us from the earlier days ? Is Robin but a personified reminiscence of the Maytime games and the restless joy that is felt at the coming of springtime.? What does it matter ? Why should one care in which of three kingly reigns a veritable “ Robert Hood ” may perchance have lived .? Far more worthy of regard is it that just as the stories of Coeur de Leon embody the early English idea of the perfect knight, the hero of the nobles, so do the ballads of Robin picture the free and sturdy yeoman, the hero of the people.
