Dust jacket by Miriam Woods. Includes a substantial section of b&w photo plates showing 97 illustrations. Michael Grant retells and discusses not only the purely imaginative stories which classify as myths, and the folk tales and fairy tales which are their younger sisters, but also some of those sagas and legends which build imaginatively upon historical fact. The Greek and Latin authors are taken in chronological order so as to give a general survey of the origins of each myth. About 8.5 inches tall, 487 pages, appendices, notes, index.
