The Trojan War is a historical essay written by Barry Strauss that explores one of the most important and myth-laden war conflicts. The author deeply analyzes the political, military, and social environment of the time to delve into this mythical battle, the starting point of Homer's Iliad. Strauss examines how much truth there is in the Homeric account and where ideas such as the invading horse or the famous Achilles' heel come from.

Barry S. Strauss is an American historian. He is a professor of history and humanistic studies at Cornell University, and a visiting Corliss Page Dean Fellow at the Hoover Institution.
