Excerpt from The Siege of Troy, And, the Wanderings of Ulysses The design of this book needs but little explanation. Of all the legends of Ancient Greece, there are none which are so constantly referred to in classic or in modern literature as those connected with the Trojan War. Mythic though they be, they may be said to form the foundation of Greek History. Of the cycle of epic poems in which they were embodied, only the great Homeric Poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey, have been preserved. But these epics present nothing more than episodes of the long story, though it is true that those episodes are the most important of the whole. The endeavour of the present writer has been to present the legends in one connected story, beginning with the founding of Troy, and ending with Ulysses' safe return and his vengeance on the enemies of his house. The story is told in simple language, and the Homeric narrative, so far as it covers the ground, has been faithfully followed.
