Black Arrow

I had four black arrows under my belt.Four for the griefs that I have felt.-Black Arrow

Robert Louis Stevenson has fashioned his story of The Black Arrow and the hero, Richard Shelton, with great suspense. Richard's exploits and adventures remind one of a young Robin Hood.Against the romantic and adventurous background of the War of the Roses, a steel cross bow and a stout heart are pitted against the black heart and evil ambitions of Sir Daniel Brackley.
