Geoff is on page 15 of 224 of Robin Hood: The Life and Legend of an Outlaw

Making my way through this slowly.
My enthusiasm was blunted somewhat by this sentence in the Intro: "There is also a grave in Hathersage, Lincolnshire, which purports to be the place where Little John was buried."

Robin Hood and Little John: Or the Merry Men of Sherwood Forest

Geoff is on page 192 of 512 of Robin Hood: A Tale of the Olden Time: Robin Hood Classic Fiction Library volume 1

but as the remarks and lamentations, with which Little John interlarded his account, would but keep your curiosity the longer in suspense, the facts shall be simply detailed.

Geoff is on page 81 of 512 of Robin Hood: A Tale of the Olden Time: Robin Hood Classic Fiction Library volume 1

The night was dark and stormy: the bleak winds of autumn blew the shrivelled leaves from the withering branches of the trees...

Suitably gothic opening but why did it take 81 pages for it to begin?

Geoff is reading Robin Hood in Greenwood Stood: Alterity and Context in the English Outlaw Tradition

Slowly working my way through. Yes distracted by the Maurice Druon series but some of the essays in this collection verge on the esoteric. Helen Phillips essay "Reformist Polemics, Reading Publics, and Unpopular Robin Hood" easily the best in book (so far).
