Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
All the wonder, terror and delight of Greek mythology springs forth from the pages of this unique and much-needed anthology. Rhonda Hendricks has not only selected from the works of the ancient authors the best -- and often earliest -- versions of these tales; she has also arranged them so as to give a cumulative view of classical mythology beginning with The Creation and The Birth of Zeus. Of particular interest are: The Ages of Mankind, The Birth of Athena, Oedipus the King, Heracles, Theseus, Jason and Medea, The Judgement of Paris, The Trojan Horse, Pygmalion, and Cupid and Psyche. These texts offer a new perspective on classical mythology and, by so doing, cast a new light on this cornerstone of Western culture.

i am reading this book in school and it is good for like study-type reading...but i wouldn't suggest picking it up for fun because the stories are all really short and quite choppy. i prefer the stories by Ovid and Hessiod personally, yet cupid and psyche is a favorite too...well...hope this helps!
