Description

In this reference for general readers and students in high school and up, 94 alphabetical articles describe the most well-known heroes and heroines from Greek and Roman mythology, from Achilles to Troilus, and also cover overlapping demigods, nymphs, sorceresses, and other creatures that inhabited the mortal world and figured prominently in the myths of the heroes and heroines. The book's art program provides visual appeal on every page, with color photos of sculptures and paintings through the centuries. Articles include brief summaries in large bold type, bibliographies, and cross references to related articles. The book contains a pronunciation guide and a list of major figures in the world of heroes and heroines, plus a list of resources for further study.
