Customer Reviews

A fairly good survey of the pantheon and their lives.

We only have 50 minutes, so this must be a quickie overview. This is part of the "In Search of History" series. We get various views of the gods from the Titans down to the heroes. We learn how they were born and how they interacted with the common folk. There may be a few misleads; however, if you know them, you can overlook them. If you do not know them, it will not mislead much. One such is the inference that Homer covered the 10-year Ilium war in the Iliad; he only covered a short, important part of the war. Aside from the narration and presenters, there are some beautiful panoramas. It is worth purchasing and re-watching. Cast: David Ackroyd David Ackroyd ... Self - Narrator John M. Camp John M.
