The Odyssey is an epic poem by the ancient Greek poet Homer. This book, titled The Odyssey: Rendered Into English Prose For The Use Of Those Who Cannot Read The Original, is a translation of the poem into English prose by Samuel Butler. The book is intended for readers who are unable to read the original ancient Greek text, but still want to experience the story of Odysseus and his journey home after the Trojan War. The translation is faithful to the original and captures the essence of Homer's epic tale. The book includes all 24 books of the Odyssey and is a great introduction to one of the greatest works of literature in Western civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
