Críticas

This was my favorite book of classical myths growing up. It has a reference style of layout, rather than the story style of Edith Hamilton's book. It presents the various gods in a fairly systematic way. It is full of allusions to English poetry. There are plenty of line drawigngs and the commentary at the rear is extensive. The 1911 edition updates the 1893 original.
