This is a very complete account of Greek myth. With close to 800 pages fully indexed it is easy to locate the stories of the individual gods or heroes you might be searching for. The text has some decent quality black & white images, but they are not the reason to buy this book. It's all about the stories. I've been teaching myth on the college level for 10 years now and have not found a nicer or more complete text accounting of Greek myths. This book also includes lots of genealogical charts so that you can trace the family histories of gods and human heroes.
This might not be a text for the casual reader of myth or for the lover of myth for two reasons: first the stories are mostly detailed summaries taken from the various sources. Reading the account of Agamemnon in this text is NOT the same as reading Aeschylus. The fluid and often beautiful words of Aeschylus are NOT here; a high quality summary of the original stories is presented. Secondly, this text includes variant myths. That is to say that often myths come in multiple versions, not all of which agree on the details. In order to place all of the mainstream myths and all of the variants into a single text the editors have chosen to place the variants into a smaller typeface, which is fine with me. This method immediately alerts the reader that he/she is getting into the side channels of mythic developments and one might want to skip over such materials because this is a very large text.
