Besides Queen Victoria's knickers, it's amazing what historians find stashed away in old closets and libraries. Unfortunately, I know all the old horrors residing in my closet and all the familiar tomes decorating my bookshelf. As a result, I have to amuse myself with the fascinating finds in other peoples' libraries and closets. The most recent find comes from a manuscript in Eton's library with a little tidbit about every one's favorite outlaw, Robin Hood. Check it out.
