Helen of Troy, she of the face that launched a thousand ships, is one of the most famous mythological figures. Her unsurpassed beauty triggered the ten year Trojan War and caused the destruction of an entire dynasty. Two whole civilisations fought for her. In this book, Margaret George brings her pen to bear on the formidable task of bringing Helen to life for second millennium reader. They're all here: Paris and Helen, the runaway lovers, Menelaus the wronged husband, Priam and Agamemnon the leaders of their peoples, Achilles and Hector the heroes, Odysseus the cunning. It's an absolutely massive undertaking.
