The Story of the Greek People

Product Description

The Story of the Greek People by Eva March Tappan was originally published in 1908 and is now republished with a brand new introductory biography.

Excerpt of The Story of the Greek People:

“The plan of this book is not only to present a simple outline of the chief events in the history of ancient Greece, but also to picture the customs of the people, their manner of living and thinking and feeling. So far as the size and scope of the little volume will permit, the names of those who were masters in art and literature are introduced, not in separate chapters as mere adjuncts to political history, but in their natural connection with the annals of their times, and ever in accordance with Plutarch’s dictum, Often an action of small note, a short saying or a jest, shall distinguish a person’s real character more than the greatest sieges or the most important battles.”
