"What the Greeks discovered, how they brought a new world to birth out of
the dark confusions of an old world that had crumbled away, is full of meaning for us today
who have seen an old world swept away."

Based on a thorough study of Greek life and civilization, of Greek literature, philosophy, and art,
The Greek Way interprets their meaning and brings a realization of the refuge and strength
the past can be to us in the troubled present. Miss Hamilton's book must take its place with the
few interpretative volumes which are permanently rooted and profoundly alive in our literature.
