  • Excellent book!!!!

    I purchased this book because it has all the great Greek stories of old. Homers stories that were once thought just that, stories. May actually have some truth and reality to them, with the ruins of Troy discovered in 2001. Love and death. Battle and war, are still a reality of today as well. To me it is a history before written history. And holds a tight connection to the Gods of Greece and Rome as well as other civilizations that rose and fell, in comparisons to today's religions. Many similarities!!!! It allows me to open up my mind to answer all the big questions in life! Not optimistically but literally!!!! Thank You! Joe
