With illustrations and maps of legendary Greece and of the constellations, this text is a vivid and colourful guide to the world's most unforgettable myths and legends.

This might be an excellent book to cover the major (and some minor) Greek myths with lots of sources and explanations of origins and discussion the multiple versions of the stories.
But it was just SO NOT what I was expecting, and therefore massively disappointing for me..
Apart from the stories on Troy, Odyssey, and the Argonauts, most pages dwindle in naming hundreds of names and family trees. Basically unreadable if you are here for a good telling of a myth.
