Told From Homer

The retelling of the Odyssey by Rev. Alfred J. Church.  The book is intended as an introduction to Homer’s epic poem. The writing style is geared towards middle school aged readers as it highlights many details that are usually omitted in children’s versions of the story, yet remains very accessible to young readers.

First published in 1906, this edition is derived from the original book with 12 color illustrations by John Flaxman.  As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
