Can you tell your Odysseus from your Oedipus? In this unique introduction, Philip Womack leads his beloved lurcher Una on an odyssey through the classical world. From Aeneas to Cerberus—a three-headed hound who is easily the scariest dog in mythology—you'll learn about the world of the Ancient Greeks and Romans and, with a bit of luck, you'll be able to pass it on to your dog. Womack is a witty and informed guide, while Una (because this is fictionalized, after all) proves to be a pleasantly chatty companion.
