Our Little Athenian Cousin of Long Ago: With 6 Original Illustrations($9.99Value)

Description

The story of Hiero, a Athenian boy, laid during the the reign of Pericles when Athens was at the zenith of her power and glory, and when art and architecture reached their climax. The story has been purposely made to emphasize the artistic, rather than the political, side of Athenian life, since it is through its art that Athens has most powerfully influenced our own life and times.
