Reading Notes: Beowulf Part A

Reading Notes: Beowulf Part A

The story of Beowulf is one of my favorites from English mythology. Reading it again is a joy as Pitz is very descriptive about the events that are happening. This version, compared to the poem I normally read is very easy to understand. With that being said a reader can engage more with the story than having to figure out how to read it. 

The Story of Beowulf by Strafford Riggs, with illustrations by Henry Pitz (1933). Part A.
