Mythology by Edith Hamilton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A brief overview of mythology in only 500 pages :)

Edith Hamilton has done us a favor by sorting through various versions of all the important stories, as well as some minor ones. To introduce each story, she gives a brief commentary to explain why she chose a particular author on which to base her retelling, and to clarify pertinent details. I enjoyed this easily readable book, and also the illustrations.
