Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0451628004, Paperback)

From the strong-arm heroics of Heracles, to the trickery of the Trojan Horse, from the seductions of Circe the sorceress, to the terrors of the Cyclops and Minotaur...

First published in 1934, Gods, Heroes and Men of Ancient Greece has become one of the most popular, enduring-and captivating-retellings of the ancient myths for modern readers. Recognizing the sheer entertainment value of these timeless adventures, world renowned classical scholar W.H.D. Rouse delighted his students at the Perse School in Cambridge, England, with a conversational style and childlike wonder that made the legends come alive-a rare storytelling gift that continues to engage young and old alike.
