Wonderfully written and beautifully presented , The Outlaws of Medieval Legend brings the popular heroes of the Middle-Ages to life. Featuring both famous - Robin Hood and William Wallace - and now forgotten rogues such as Gamelyn and Fulke Fitzwarin, this book explains the popularity of these semi-mythical figures, and how their stories appealed to the common people of the Middle Ages.
Long unavailable, and now featuring a new introduction from the author, this is the perfect book for anyone with a fondness for medieval history and folklore.
Maurice Keen is a distinguished historian of the Middle Ages and Fellow and Tutor at Balliol College, Oxford. His many books include England in the Later Middle Ages (Routledge, 1975), Heraldry (Yale, 1986) and Nobles, Knights and Men at Arms in the Middle Ages (Hambledon Press, 1996).
