Troy is one of the most famous ancient cities. This is primarily due to Homer, who chronicled the story of Troy in his famous epic, the *Iliad*, nearly 3,000 years ago. The German scholar Heinrich Schliemann was so fascinated by this story that he was determined to find the site where the events took place. Through his excavations and the discovery of the gold treasure of Troy, he brought ancient history to life and sparked the enduring interest in the ancient ruins that exists today. This volume covers both the legends and the actual history of the city of Troy.
