Together, these stories provide a comprehensive picture of Greek myth and legend. Barthold Georg Niebuhr (1776 - 1831), was a Danish-German statesman, banker, and historian who became Germany's leading historian of Classical Rome and Greece. His classic story telling brings this long lost world and ancient civilisation to life - for both young and old to enjoy. This edition of 'The Greek Heroes' contains a series of dazzling colour and black-and-white illustrations - by a master of the craft; Arthur Rackham (1867-1939).
