In addition to the Greek and Roman myths that seem almost ubiquitous these days, this book by Wordsworth Reference and written by Fernand Comte covers myths from all around the world in succinct, clear and informative passages. It is perfect for the person, like me, who wants a quick entry into many of these wonderful stories that permeate our own literature and art galleries. Highly recommended.
