Hermes helped many people in the Greek myths including Perseus and Odysseus.
Hermes, the Greek god of trade, thieves, and travelers, was involved in several myths in Greek mythology. One of the most famous myths involving Hermes is his role as the messenger of the gods, delivering messages between the deities and mortals. Hermes is also known for his involvement in the myth of the invention of the lyre, which he created from a tortoise shell. Additionally, Hermes is often associated with the myth of his birth and his mischievous nature as a trickster god.
Hermes (Mercury) was the main messenger depicted, but Iris is also a messenger in some myths
Hermes invented the lyre, which is kind of like a harp, and gave it to Apollo for stealing his special cattle.
The Story of Hermes is told in the book "Hermes the Olympian" a book by David Rosser, available on Amazon.com. In this story, David collects all of the known myths about the winged messenger of Zeus and puts them together in a coherent tale, explaining that Hermes is actually the Hero of the Olympians. The story of Hermes does not end when the tales of the Olympians are told no more because Hermes is pretty special. There are more books being written by David about Hermes in the series called "Trismegistus" which should be available in the next year or so.
