Maid Marion
Maid Marion has had a variety of names in the lifetime of the story. But in all, she is the love of Robin Hood...a wife of the forest. A storybook romance, the story of the two lovers are of a type to which even the most stoic person among us would not be immune.
As many ways as she has been written in literature, she has been portrayed in movies and television. But throughout the common theme is that of a beautiful, independent woman.
