    Synopsis
    Edith Hamilton's guide remains the definitive source for anyone seeking to explore the history and significance of Greek and Roman mythology. Hamilton provides an insightful introduction to classical mythology, detailing its importance in ancient society and continuing relevance today, and then gives specific summaries of all the most important characters and stories, including the creation of the world, the rise of Zeus and the gods, the Trojan War, and the adventures of mortal heroes such as Hercules, Perseus, and Odysseus. Hamilton summarizes all of the most fascinating tales, and many lesser known ones as well, and also analyzes their meaning, symbolism and connection to the natural world.

    school required books

    Created: 10/05/10
    I bought this book because it was required for school. It was very cheap and affordable but had some marks in it and cover damage from the last owner. All in all, I was satisfied with this book.
