A Very Good Resource,
This review is from: Sirens: Symbols of Seduction (Hardcover)
In researching a paper I am currently writing on the mermaid in literature, I was surpised at the dearth of scholarship on this subject. Lao's book is more a coffee table piece than a scholarly discourse, but it is nicely researched and has pointed me to numerous literary works in which mermaids are mentioned. I must say that the illustrations are not nearly as interesting as those in, say, Ratisseau's beautiful book, but there is more substance here.
5.0 out of 5 stars

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sirens: Symbols of Seduction (Hardcover)
Very scholarly work with an expansive bibliography. More info on sirens than mermaids, but covers both subjects thoroughly. Lots of illustrations. Very happy with purchase
