(Vols. 1- 4) A new standard in the genre of World Mythology has become available. This four-volume set covers the entire gamut of myth and legend, from Acastus to Zeus, with many unexpected entries thrown in as well. The set, however, is not simply for research; rather, it is written for students, who will find it profusely illustrated, full of related vocabulary words, highly interesting, and extremely useful. No class on myths should be without this resource. Volume 4 includes an excellent glossary, genealogical trees from various cultures, a bibliography, and a complete index to the set.
