The Book of the Epic
The Book of the Epic by Helene Adeline Guerber Every now and then in our reading we come suddenly face to face with first things, -the very elemental sources beyond which no man may go. There is a distinct satisfaction in dealing with such beginnings, and, when they are those of literature, the sense of freshness is nothing short of inspiring.

The Story of the Greeks
The Story of the Greeks by H. A. (Helene Adeline) Guerber This elementary history of Greece is intended for supplementary reading or as a first history text-book for young pupils.

At the same time, these stories will give a clear idea of the most important events that have taken place in the ancient world, and, it is hoped, will arouse a desire to read further. They also aim to enforce the lessons of perseverance, courage, patriot...
