Robert of Wakefield: Robin Hood's Father

His father died on a Norman sword. Now he has a Welsh bow, and a Saxon arrow drawn to his ear-pointed at the murderer's heart. "Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord." But...

His deeds have been lost-till now. Deeds that would shape his son's life.

His son who became legend!

From the Clerk of Copmanhurst Letters: Long before Robin bent a bow, his father, Robert of Wakefield, defied the Normans. Orphaned in an age of anarchy, he grew to serve a flawed king, antagonize a grasping abbot, and battle ruthless Norman lords. Despite the king's new laws, a man had only what he could hold, and Robert Hood must fight for his home without losing his life or those of his wife and new-born son.
