The myth of Jason and the heroes who sailed the Argo has captivated the imagination of readers and theatergoers since the days of ancient Greece.

Informative sidebars, maps, and artwork are also featured, connecting this ancient epic with its place in pop culture, the real geography of Greece and the Black Sea, and the importance Jason has had in the vision of artists for over 2,000 years.
