* Theseus's abduction of Helen
* The oath of Helen's suitors
* The wedding of Peleus
* The birth, youth, and judgement of Paris
* The flight of Helen and Paris to Troy
* The madness of Odysseus
* The discovery of Achilles
* The sacrifice of Iphigenia
Ensues an epilogue which narrates the events of the Trojan War and the aftermath. More a young adult book than for children, even though it is quite short. The illustrations are few but remarkable. Paris is absolutely naked, and Achilles dresses for battle in a remarkably diaphanous kilt and very little else.
The cover illustration of my edition, also by Charles Mikolaycak, shows Menelaus and Paris. ( )
