The Original Robin HoodThough there was an earlier oral tradition, the earliest versions of the Robin Hood ballads and plays that survive were written in the late 1400s, a time when the language was very close to modern English. The main obstacle to reading these works is their archaic spelling.This book makes them accessible to a general audience for the first time by modernizing the spelling and including translations of the relatively small number of words that are no longer used. In these works, you will meet a Robin Hood who is just a bit different from the hero of the later legends-rougher, sometimes greedy, sometimes surprisingly generous. The later legends tell us that Robin Hood was a loyal subject of King Richard and rebelled against his brother Prince John, who ruled while the king was away on a crusade. But two of these earlier works mention the name of the king, and they both say it is Edward, not Richard. The introduction uses clues in the work to discover which King Edward they meant. We can understand why the legend became so popular, once we see that Robin Hood lived at a time when the Commons was struggling to establish itself as independent part of England's government, along with the Lords and the King.

Robin's Great Adventure: This is the true story of a boy called Robin who wanted to be an explorer, an adventurer. Maybe travel the world, visit the deserts and jungles and climb snowy mountains. Born in Germany at the end of the 19th century, he had already lived in three countries before he started school in England in 1906. Robin couldn't wait to grow up and go off and do his own thing, like hunting and fishing and travel the world - maybe even join the Navy. His parents liked to spend time overseas with friends and relatives and so they sent Robin and his elder brother Pip to boarding school. Robin attended Osborne Naval College and later Eton. Just as he was about to leave school and embark on a life of adventure the Great War broke out - and changed everything. Penny for your thoughts: The tale of a 1963 penny; travel with her on her journey, from her humble beginnings at Tower Hill in London, through her adventures across Britain in purses, pockets, cash drawers and vending machines. Meet the acquaintances she makes along the way - The Danish Krone, whose only wish it is to go home. The elderly lady who likes to sit in Sefton Park and read. The 1949 penny with a very distinguishing imperfection and which he explained made him a very valuable coin to a collector - smugly chiding the penny into asking what his particular imperfection was. The 1918 dated Rupee from India who said he had travelled to England by boat in 1936. Proudly displayed the emblem 'GEORGE V KING EMPEROR.' The 1951 penny who had spent 3 years at the bottom of a wishing well in Broadstairs, Kent. The months spent stuck behind a cinema seat, sitting through 320 showings of Zulu and have crisps, dust, crumbs and goodness knows what else kicked at her. Let penny tell you her story.....

Holy adolescence, Batman! Robin and the Making of American Adolescence offers the first character history and analysis of the most famous superhero sidekick, Robin. Debuting just a few months after Batman himself, Robin has been an integral part of the Dark Knight’s history—and debuting just a few months prior to the word “teenager” first appearing in print, Robin has from the outset both reflected and reinforced particular images of American adolescence. Closely reading several characters who have “played” Robin over the past eighty years, Robin and the Making of American Adolescence reveals the Boy (and sometimes Girl!) Wonder as a complex figure through whom mainstream culture has addressed anxieties about adolescents in relation to sexuality, gender, and race. This book partners up comics studies and adolescent studies as a new Dynamic Duo, following Robin as he swings alongside the ever-changing American teenager and finally shining the Bat-signal on the latter half of “Batman and—.”

Robin Hood and his merry foresters. By: Stephen Percy. / the pseudonym of Joseph Cundall / ILLUSTRATED / Children's book
Joseph Cundall (22 September 1818 Norwich - 10 January 1895 Wallington, London), was a Victorian English writer under the pseudonym of "Stephen Percy", a pioneer photographer and London publisher of children's books. He provided employment for many of the best artists of the day by using them as illustrators. Joseph was the son of Eliza and Benjamin Cundall, a draper. He trained as a printer in Ipswich, and aged 16 found work in London with Charles Tilt, a bookseller and publisher. He wrote two books for Tilt and succeeded N Hailes in 1841 at the Juvenile Library, 12 Old Bond Street. In 1848 he started a lending library for children called St. George's Reading Library. In 1843 Cundall became publisher of the Home Treasury children's books, a series conceived and edited by Henry Cole under the pseudonym Felix Summerly. Cole, who was later knighted, became the first director of South Kensington Museum which later changed its name to the Victoria and Albert Museum. Because of his association with Henry Cole, his early business ventures were successful, but by 1849 he had gone bankrupt. During the same year he started a partnership with H M Addey and moved his business premises to 21 Old Bond Street. This partnership dissolved in 1852 and Cundall moved to 168 New Bond Street, where his interest in photography started and where he founded
