Very serious and academic... not an easy read, but a fascinating one nevertheless. (

The most comprehensive and scholarly study of the Greek Myths and relating them to the way Greeks lived and thought in the milenium from 1400BC. (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0140171991, Paperback)

In a work that has become a classic reference book for both the serious scholar and the casual inquirer, Graves retells the adventures of the important gods and heroes worshipped by the ancient Greeks. Each entry provides a full commentary which examines problems of interpretation in both historical and anthropological terms, and in light of contemporary research.
