    Chapter 4

    I discovered Errol Flynn at age 10. Robin Hood, Captain Blood, The Sea Hawk - most of what he made in his early period were swashbucklers or actioners. I saw The Adventures of Robin Hood at my school one summer Saturday. I was hooked. The stuff he did later is sad, the portrait of someone who has lived fast and hard and aged before his time.

    You were right, CG. But I checked all 8 chapters, and this chapter had the only instances of the mistake. I suspect I was thinking of Max's company from early in the series, Planet Earth Enterprises, or PEE. Great catch, that five people who read this before posting, including me, missed!

    I wanted Robin Hood's mood to be understood, if not his methods. But we'll get to that, at some point. A fine picture you posted. But I much prefer this Robin:
