The Odyssey

rendered into English prose
for the use of those who
cannot read the original

By Samuel Butler

Preface to First Edition

This translation is intended to supplement a work entitled "The
Authoress of the Odyssey", which I published in 1897. I could
not give the whole "Odyssey" in that book without making it
unwieldy, I therefore epitomised my translation, which was
already completed and which I now publish in full.

Project Gutenberg only offers public works. Although "The Odyssey" is old, it looks like the translation by Allen Mandelbaum is still under copyright.

It looks like a copy of the e-book would cost about $5 at various places.

You can get Homer's epic in three English and one French translations on Project Guttenberg, however none are the Allen Mandelbaum translation. If Mandelbaum's translation is fairly new, then unless he has allowed it to be placed online, either in the public domain or for sale, then you may not be able to find it online.

"The Odyssey," as translated by others, is freely available.. the Mandelbaum version seems only available for purchase. Hope this helps!
