Stories From The Iliad
Retold by H.L. Havell
Published by George G. Harrap & Co Ltd: London 1919

" Homer was an ancient Greek poet traditionally credited with composing the Iliad and the Odyssey, two of the most important epic poems in Western literature. He is believed to have lived sometime between the 12th and 8th centuries BCE, though his exact existence remains uncertain. Some scholars debate whether Homer was a single individual or a collective name for multiple poets who contributed to these works.

The Iliad focuses on the Trojan War, particularly the wrath of Achilles, while the Odyssey follows the journey of Odysseus as he tries to return home after the war. These epics played a fundamental role in shaping Greek culture and later Western literature."
