What is that old adage about giving a man a fish, or teaching him how to catch his own? I don't recall how it goes...

Robin is largely a fictional character and though some of the stories may hold some semblance to the thirteenth century, the accounts of the government wouldn't be accurate either. Still, it is hard to sell stories about what could have been some displaced nobleman teaching cottagers how to fend for themselves or negotiate with their landlords. Who would be interested?

I think, regardless of how it is glorified, Robin was wrong.
