Sorry, APple, but you have been watching too much television.

Robin Hood did not exist
He MAY be an amalgam of several different outlaws from different periods of history, but it's more likely that he's entirely made up.
And the 'rob from the rich and give to the poor' certainly never happened until the Welfare State.

The Robin Hood books were banned in the USA during McCarthy's era because he was thought to be a communist!
