The Black Arrow
A Tale of the Two Roses
Author:
Robert Louis Stevenson
Narrator:
Gildart Jackson
In fifteenth-century England, young Richard Shelton discovers that he has been betrayed by the guardian who raised him—a man involved in the murder of his father. Seventeen-year-old Richard joins the fellowship of the Black Arrow to avenge the death, rescue the woman he loves, and participate in the struggle between the Yorks and Lancasters in the War of the Roses. Though history records two sides fighting for control of England, this tale presents a third: the exploited commoners joined together by their black-arrow weaponry. Through many adventures, Richard outfoxes captors, bargains his way out of crises, and ultimately proves himself worthy of knighthood.
