The Forest Lovers is a novel written by Maurice Hewlett, published in 1898. The story is set in the medieval era, in the heart of the forest of Dean in England. It follows the lives of two young lovers, Robin Hood and Maid Marian, who are drawn together by their shared love of nature and their desire for adventure.The novel is divided into two parts, the first of which introduces the reader to Robin Hood and his band of outlaws who live in the forest. The second part focuses on the romance between Robin and Marian, as they navigate their way through the dangers of the forest and the challenges of their own relationship.Throughout the novel, Hewlett explores themes of love, loyalty, and the power of nature. He also delves into the political and social issues of the time, including the conflict between the ruling class and the common people.The Forest Lovers is a beautifully written and engaging novel that transports the reader back in time to a world of adventure, romance, and intrigue. It is a must-read for anyone who loves historical fiction or is a fan of the Robin Hood legend.Prosper le Gai--all Morgraunt before him--rose from his bed before the Countess had turned in hers; and long before the Abbot could get alone with Dom Galors he was sighing for his breakfast. He had, indeed, seen the dawn come in, caught the first shiver of the trees, the first tentative chirp of the birds, watched the slow filling of the shadowy pools and creeks with the grey tide of light. From brake to brake he struggled, out of the shade into the dark, thence into what seemed a broad lake of daylight. He met no living thing; or ever the sun kissed the tree-tops he was hungry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
