About this book

This epic poem, written by Virgil between 29 and 19 BC, tells the story of Aeneas, a Trojan who travelled to Italy, where he became the ancestor of the Romans. It tells the story of Aeneas's wanderings from Troy to Italy, and of the Trojans' ultimately victorious war upon the Latins, under whose name Aeneas and his Trojan followers are destined to be subsumed.
