| Abstract | Tells of the great seige at Troy, the woman who caused it, the warriors who fought and fell, and the trickery that ended it all. The Trojan prince Paris has abducted Helen, the beautiful wife of King Menelaus. It is a crime that will unite all of Greece's armies against the kingdom of Troy. In a 10-year siege, brave warriors will fight, and both sides will suffer great bloodshed. Can the deadlock be broken?" |
