The Story of Troy is a work of history written by author and historian M. Clarke. It is an excellent choice for those wishing to familiarise themselves with the story in a quick and efficient manner. Clarke opens his book with a brief discussion of Homer, author of The Iliad and The Odyssey , and whose writing serves as a major source of information about the history of Troy. The author then begins his interpretation of Troy with several chapters examining the city's geography and geo-political status. Of course, any history of Troy must address the Trojan War, and it is on this topic that Clarke spends the majority of his time. The writings of Homer, as translated by Alexander Pope, serve as Clarke's primary source of information about the war. The book proceeds in a logical fashion, and concludes with a chapter on the death of Achilles and the status of the Greek chiefs after the war. Clarke has created a well-written account of Troy's history. Although written in the nineteenth century, and therefore lacking in some of the historical breakthroughs of the modern world, The Story of Troy is still an interesting and useful interpretation of the events detailed. Clarke's writing is concise and definitive and this book could best be categorized as an introductory history. Readers interested in a basic history of Troy will enjoy The Story of Troy . Clarke's passion is clear and his work here is commendable. This title is a worthy addition to the personal library of history enthusiasts everywhere.
