Epilogue
Howard Pyle was born on March 5, 1853 in Wilmington, Delaware. From the time he was a very small boy he loved pictures, especially the pictures in storybooks. Among his favorites were Grimm’s German Fairy Tales and Arabian Nights.
At the age of twenty-one, Pyle began to contribute illustrations and fables to St. Nicholas magazine and later went on to write and illustrate books for children. His first was The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood in 1883. Many more books followed. He also taught illustration at the Drexel Institute in Philadelphia and later set up his own art school in Wilmington. He died on November 9, 1911, in Florence, Italy.

Fantastic classic
This is a fantastic classic that should be on every British persons shelf, it is a great read with interesting characters and events.
The book takes the format of several short stories that are interconnected, there is no real main plot.
My only gripe is with the American artificial sounding voice that breaks up each chapter. The voice is so off putting and breaks the immersion, especially next to the calming British narrator, David Thorn.
