It is a book for young readers written in the early twentieth century.
It recounts the Trojan War, blending episodes from the Iliad with others drawn from Greek tragedies.
Though aimed at young readers, it is written in a clear language, yet remains rich in terms of both syntax and constraints.
The intent is also moralistic, conveying a society grounded in simple, common-sense values: friendship, loyalty, but also the understanding of error and a disdain for war.
The book is very fine.
