The Greek Myths

These are the greatest stories ever told - the labours of Heracles, the voyage of the Argonauts, Theseus and the Minotaur, Midas and his golden touch, the Trojan War and Odysseus's journey home - brought together in one epic and unforgettable story.

Ideal for the first-time reader, it can be read as a single page-turning narrative, while full commentaries as well as a comprehensive index of names make it equally valuable for anyone seeking an authoritative and detailed account of the spectacular stories that make up the bedrock of Western literature.

The Greek Myths is a classic among classics, a treasure trove of extraordinary tales and a masterful work of literature in its own right.
