About this book

Set during England's Wars of the Roses, this rousing adventure follows young Dick Shelton through ambush, betrayal, and the mysterious outlaw band of the Black Arrow as he seeks revenge for his father's murder and the hand of the girl he loves. Stevenson delivers swordplay, disguise, shipwreck, and derring-do at a breathless pace against a vivid medieval background. A classic boys'-own tale of honor, treachery, and young love in a lawless age, The Black Arrow is pure adventure told with Stevenson's storytelling verve. Fast-moving and full of incident, it remains a thrilling introduction to the romance of England's turbulent fifteenth century.
