Walks
in Robin Hood's Yorkshire
Richard Bell
Follow in the footsteps of 'the Yorkshire
Robin Hood' with these 6 walks and 2 short town trails exploring
the places - such as Sayles, Kirklees, St Mary's Abbey and
the Pinder Field of Wakefield - mentioned in the ballads.
Colourful comic strips follow the life of Robert Hode of Wakefield
who it seems became involved in the rebellion led by Thomas,
Earl of Lancaster, lord of the manor of Wakefield. Walks visit
Lancaster's two castles (one of which, Pontefract, was the
scene of his mock-trial and subsequent execution) and the
battlefield of Boroughbridge.

We
are always on the look-out for good books at RICKARO
The Matthew Hervey novels of Allan Mallinson.
At Rickaro Books we have a interest
in military writing, this includes non-fiction accounts and
manuals, but we also have a liking for good accurate fiction
such as the writings of Patrick O'Brien and allan Mallinson.
In particular we like to have in stock titles of the acclaimed
series of Mallinson works featuring Matthew Hervey of the
Light Dragoons. There are now
eight in the series: A CLOSE RUN THING, THE NIZAM'S DAUGHTER,
A REGIMENTAL AFFAIR, A CALL TO ARMS, THE SABRE'S EDGE, RUMOURS
OF WAR, AN ACT OF COURAGE and the latest COMPANY OF SPEARS.
These are becoming harder to find in good hardcover first
editions but we have the paperbacks if you just want a good
read.
