Aeneid of Virgil

Aeneas flees the ashes of Troy to found the city of Rome and change forever the course of the Western world--as literature as well. Virgil's <i>Aeneid</i> is as eternal as Rome itself a sweeping epic of arms and heroism--the searching portrait of a man caught between love and duty human feeling and the force of fate--that has influenced writers for over 2000 years. Filled with drama passion and the universal pathos that only a masterpiece can express. <i>The Aeneid</i> is a book for all the time and all people.
