Charlotte Yonge tells the story of ancient Greece in simple chapters for young children. She begins with the gods of Olympus, Perseus, the labours of Hercules, the Argonauts and the choice of Paris, then moves into real history: the Persian wars, the rivalry of Athens and Sparta, Alcibiades and Lysander.
Written by one of the most popular Victorian writers for the young, it remains an easy first step into Greek history. Download the free EPUB.
