Overview
The Iliad V1: Books One To Twelve (1866) is a classic epic poem written by the ancient Greek poet Homer. The poem tells the story of the Trojan War, a ten-year battle between the Greeks and the Trojans. The first twelve books of the poem are included in this volume. The story begins with the quarrel between the Greek king Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles, which leads to the latter's withdrawal from the war. The Trojans, led by their prince Hector, gain the upper hand in the war, but the Greeks eventually turn the tide with the help of the gods. The poem is full of action, drama, and vivid descriptions of battles and heroic deeds. It also explores themes such as honor, pride, and the destructive nature of war. This edition includes a translation by Samuel Butler and an introduction by Andrew Lang.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
