Video Description
Is the English hero William of Cassingham the real Robin Hood? In the reign of King John, one man stood alone against the tyranny of an unwanted king. Fleeing the authorities for the protection of the deep woods, he raised a band of bowman and launched cunning ambushes on the corrupt knights and lords who travelled through the trees. Does this sound like the Robin Hood legend to you? In fact, this is the story of William of Cassingham, a man known as Willikin of the Weald. A forgotten English hero and a man often named as the historical Robin Hood. But is this true? Find out all about William’s life and his heroic exploits in the war against Prince Louis and his army of French knights and rebel English barons and discover for yourself if it's anything like the legend of Robin Hood. *Support the Channel* Patreon ➜ https://www.patreon.com/dandavisauthor PayPal ➜ https://paypal.me/DanDavisAuthor Ko-fi ➜ https://ko-fi.com/dandavis *My Books* The Immortal Knight Chronicles ➜ https://amzn.to/3xXsDCl All my books on Amazon ➜ https://amzn.to/3xngwz5 *My Links* Website http://dandavisauthor.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dandavisauthor/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DanDavisWrites Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dandavisauthor/ *Music* Lombus ➜ https://lombus.bandcamp.com/ Patrick Patrikios Audionautix Loopop Godmode Quincas Moreira Kevin MacLeod *Video Sources* L'Histoire de Guillaume le Marechal ➜ https://amzn.to/3gY9Ocq Flores Historiarum by Roger of Wendover ➜ https://amzn.to/3hd0gt2 A Note on William of Cassingham by G.R.
