Description
A Golden Age of Myth
Magnificent myths of Olympus, thunderous tales of Norse gods, ancient legends of deities and heroes that echo throughout history, art, and literature are retold in Thomas Bulfinch's great enduring classic.
Here are the legends of Greece and Rome; here are the quarrelsome Jupiter, Juno and their Olympian companions, who adventured amorously among lesser gods and heroes... brought vividly to life by Thomas Bulfinch.
His tales of antiquity also include the warlike Norse gods - Odin, Thor, goddess Freya, and the sky-riding Valkyrior - heroes of the great northern part of Europe's heritage.
The Age of Fable is a brilliant reconstruction of the traditional myths which form the backbone of Western culture.
