Helpful in basic research endeavors,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Illustrated Dictionary of Greek and Roman Mythology (Library of the world's myths and legends) (Library Binding)
Having had ocassion to research and write several papers dealing with mythology, I have often turned to Stapleton's book to acquire at least a basic familiarity with a myth or legend. While his dictionary does not include many of the more obscure tales, the listed entries do provide in-depth, helpful information on the "classic" myths.
1.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Illustrated Dictionary of Greek & Roman Mythology (Paperback)
i was hoping to be inspired by my favourite greek myths. I thought the format was rigid and cold. if your looking for "just the facts" in alphabetical order, this would be a book for you. Very few illustrations. This is not a juicy coffee table book full of inspiring illustrations. Maybe good for a college student to study from and pack in a backpack.
