The Aeneid - thrilling, terrifying and poignant in equal measure -
has inspired centuries of artists, writers and musicians. Part of
the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning,
clothbound, pocket sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon
markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for
any book lover. This edition is translated by J. W. Mackail and has
an afterword by Coco Stevenson. Virgil's epic tale tells the story
of Aeneas, a Trojan hero, who flees his city after its fall, with
his father Anchises and his young son Ascanius - for Aeneas is
destined to found Rome and father the Roman race. As Aeneas
journeys closer to his goal, he must first prove his worth and
attain the maturity necessary for such an illustrious task. He
battles raging storms in the Mediterranean, encounters the fearsome
Cyclopes, falls in love with Dido, Queen of Carthage, travels into
the Underworld and wages war in Italy.
