The Myths Of Greece And Rome

This generously illustrated book of classical myths has become a classic in itself, long prized for its simple, graphic, accurate retelling of the principle myths of Greece and Rome, and for its commentary on their origins and significance. Sixty-four illustrations by such masters as Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Rubens, Canova, and Bernini add further classic touches to this time-honored work, which also includes an invaluable genealogical table and a map showing the location of the myths.

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
