The Scarecrow! His name struck fear in the hearts of the king's soldiers. Dressed in tattered clothes and straw, he prowled the countryside with his band of "Gentlemen." To the rich, he was a smuggler and a villain. But to the poor, he was a hero! Only his trusted aides, like John Banks, the judge's son, knew his real identity. In the dark of night, from the marshes to the coast, his men would ride. Amidst thundering hooves, all England would hear the fiendish yell of—The Scarecrow.
