"Tales of Romance" by Andrew Lang, H. J. Ford, and Lancelot Speed is a collection of romantic and adventurous stories written in the early 20th century. This anthology brings to life legendary characters and tales, including the famous Robin Hood, through vivid illustrations and detailed narratives. The stories explore themes of adventure, heroism, and fantasy, depicting the richness of folklore that spans across different cultures. The opening of the collection introduces the legendary figure of Robin Hood and sets the scene in medieval England, where he lives as an outlaw beloved by the poor for his bravery against corrupt authorities. As Robin Hood navigates his life in Sherwood Forest, he encounters Little John, a formidable stranger who soon becomes his loyal companion. The narrative captures their initial confrontation and the establishment of their brotherhood, highlighting Robin's strict code against harming the innocent while targeting the wealthy, especially the Sheriff of Nottingham. This heartwarming introduction to camaraderie and adventure lays the foundation for the enchanting tales that follow in the collection. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
