Book: Mythology: The Illustrated Anthology Of World Myth And Storytelling Myths express in dramatic and compelling form the forces that have shaped humankind's experience, from the clash of the elements to the cycles of the calendar, and the pattern of birth, procreation, and death. Generously illustrated with more than 700 color photographs and works of art, this book retells the most significant and captivating stories in a lively, contemporary style. Mythology shows how the ancient Egyptians believed the daily cycle of the sun was determined, relives the bloody wars of the Celtic heroes and the Viking gods, and introduces a menagerie of mythical animals, from Raven, Hare, and Coyote in Native North America to Lady Silkworm and the Monkey King in ancient China.
