by Andrew Lang
Andrew Lang draws on his classical teaching to tell the Homeric legend of the wars between the Greeks and the Trojans. Paris, Helen of Troy, Achilles, Hector, Ulysses, Amazon, and the Wooden Horse are featured in this fascinating introduction to one of the greatest legends ever told. Beautifully illustrated by H. J. Ford, Lang skillfully draws on his classical training to bring to life some of the central histories of Greek mythology. Readers will follow the exciting adventures of Ulysses from childhood due to his dangerous return from the Trojan War, meet the beautiful Elena of Troy, hear about the amazing Trojan horse, join Jason in his determined quest for the Golden Fleece, encounter the wild, beautiful Amazons and learn about the legendary actions of other wonderful Greek heroes.
