Alfred Church's beloved Iliad retelling for readers of all ages, updated with over 30 classic works of art.

Homer's timeless epic poem is a foundation of Western literature, and for over a century, Rev. Alfred J. Church's 1907 retelling remains a popular choice to introduce readers of all ages to this classic tale.

Set during the final year of the Trojan War, the ancient Greeks must overcome their own conflicts and unite to defeat Hector and the mighty army of Troy. Readers will encounter courageous heroes including King Agamemnon, Menelaus, Helen of Troy, Achilles and the Myrmidons, Hector and Andromache, Diomedes and Ajax, King Priam and Queen Hecuba. These mortals must suffer or thrive under the often warring or indifferent divinities. Themes of loyalty, honor, revenge, suffering, death and compassion live on in this ancient story.

Homer's epic tale comes to life with full color classic paintings from Jacques-Louis David, Angelica Kauffmann, Walter Crane, Richard Westall and more, as well as John Flaxman's delightful illustrations from early editions of this book.

As with all Nourished Upon Ideas titles, this edition carefully preserves the author's complete and unabridged text, and artwork has been carefully selected to be suitable for all ages.

At Nourished Upon Ideas, we create Charlotte Mason-inspired curriculum and bring classic living books to life with beautiful paintings and illustrations. www.nourisheduponideas.com
