Hello;
I am a used bookstore owner in Pennsylvania. I have a customer who is looking for a copy of the Iliad in Latin. I found your site and discovered that you spoke of the value in reading it. Do you know where I can find a copy of the book in Latin? I have not been able to find any on my many traditional websites. Thanks for the help.

Jann,

I'll work some of my resources and see what I can dig up.

Jann,

I found this portion of the Illiad, there's no way it's the whole thing, but it's a good chunk of it. I'm still looking, and have feelers out looking for it.

Alas Friends,

After working my resource, I have found that nobody has ever heard of such a thing, and worse, nobody can even think of a reason to do this. And since there would be very little market for it likely does not exist.

Here's book six of the Odyssey in Latin. I'll try to get the rest.
