Our little Corinthian cousin of long ago

Journey to the bustling harbours, marble temples, and vibrant marketplaces of ancient Corinth with Dryas, a lively Greek boy growing up in the age when Corinth stood as one of the richest and most powerful cities of Greece. In Our Little Corinthian Cousin of Long Ago, readers follow Dryas as he helps in his family's workshop, sails along the coast, attends festivals in honour of the gods, and explores the famed Isthmian Games.

From encounters with merchants and artisans to glimpses of soldiers, priests, and travellers from across the Mediterranean, Dryas' experiences reveal a thriving crossroads of culture, trade, and craftsmanship.

Told with gentle storytelling and vivid historical detail, this charming tale offers a child's-eye view into the energetic, artistic world of ancient Corinth and its proud, resourceful people.
