Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Story of Ulysses
The bravest of King Priam's sons was Hec'tor. He was commander of the armies Of Troy during the greater part of the siege, and he was so valiant and skillful and wise a commander that while he lived the Greeks were not able to take the city. But in the Greek army there was a warrior braver and greater even than Hector. This was the fa mous A-chil'les, son of Pe'leus, king of Thes'sa-ly. Achilles killed Hector in single combat, but soon after he was himself killed by Par'is, another of Priam's sons.
