The
story of the Trojan War has been told again and again. In A Thousand Ships,
Shanower graphically presents the ancient legends informed by the findings
of modern archeology. His extensive research on the Age of Bronze has produced
historically accurate drawings. The first in a series of seven volumes
about the Trojan War, A Thousand Ships introduces the characters and sets
the stage for the war incited by the kidnapping of the beautiful Helen
from her home in Sparta. Shanower’s words and illustrations will make an
old, old story new again. (Jean B. Bellavance for Pennsylvania
Young Reader's Choice Awards, 2005-2006)
