Got the writing, but presented poorly and cheaply.
It is literally his Theogony and Works and Days clear cut. However, presented on cheap paper and an even cheap cover and out of focus painting, not visible on the picture as Amazon depicts.

Beware this edition
This product has been misrepresented. Under the "Editorial Reviews" section of the product description, one review, which one would assume was connected to the product, praises "Professor West's excellent translations." This is NOT the West translation! In fact, there is no credit for translation AT ALL! To make matters worse, the words are merely spilled over the page with no attempt to present them as verse. The "notes" are perfunctory and basically useless. This appears to be a "print on demand" book. It also appears not to have been proofread or edited at all. The text is rife with misspellings and typos. In several instances I had to figure out that "is" should have been "if." Amazon is refunding my money.

Printed from a website
I purchased the edition printed by CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform (May 23, 2012). There is no translator listed in the book. This edition has no introduction or extra explanation. After a quick online search, i found that it is just printed from a free website, and matches up exactly with one I found for free online translated by Hugh G. Evelyn-White. I would suggest buying a different copy.
