Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an accessible telling of the Trojan War, providing a narrative path into the historical event that has shaped many subsequent works of literature. The author presents a near-total account of the war, beginning with its inciting incident: the abduction of Helen and the offended honor of the Atreidae brothers, and continuing to the war's end. Ancient Greek and Trojan societies, politics, and even the gods themselves are brought to bear on the conflict, and are seen at times as influencing both sides. Ultimately, this telling of the Trojan War reveals the complexities and subtleties of the ancient world, and the human cost of a violent conflict.
