Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Boys´ Heroes Boys are jealously exclusive in the choice of their heroes, and have not many. I asked some of my younger friends why Hector was a boy´s hero, to receive these replies: "Oh, because Achilles was such a hog." Another boy said, "Oh, you like the Trojans, you know, and you are sorry the Greeks beat them." I tried to find out whether Hector´s gentlemanly traits, of which he has more than any hero of the Iliad, had anything to do with the preference of Hector to Achilles.
