The Black Arrow | Overview
The Black Arrow is an exciting adventure story full of intrigue, suspense, hair-breadth escapes, and desperate fights. It also contains an unusual love story: the heroine first appears disguised as a boy, and the hero, conditioned to be indifferent or hostile to women, comes grudgingly to admire and then to love her. The Black Arrow offers valuable insights into history and rates among the best novels available about the fifteenth-century English civil conflict known as the Wars of the Roses.
