This pictorial guide looks at the ancient Greeks - their myths, heroes and the legacy of their civilization. One of the most flourishing the world has ever known, the ancient Greek culture includes literature, drama, architecture, philosophy and art at the forefront not only for its time but also for ours. This book brings the glory of ancient Greece to life, from the grand palace cultures of the Minoans and Myceneans, to Homer's golden age of Athens, the warlike Spartans and the campaigns of Alexander.
