TROY - The Myth and Reality Behind the Epic Legend

Product Description

Troy digs deep into the heart of one of the greatest stories ever told. Troy's story begins in the mind of travelling storytellers and comes to its culmination in Homer's epic poem, The Ilad. For many, the city of Troy has long been regarded as myth but others believe Tro existed. Whatever is true, Troy conjures up images of golden heroes, beautiful women, duplicitous gods, mighty warriors and a wooden horse. Troy was the scene of a ten-year siege and the focus of gruesome battles inspired by the abduction of the most beautiful women in the world, Helen of Sparta.
