A Pocket Dictionary of Ancient Greek Heroes and Heroines

(4) 4-6 Originally published by the British Museum and filled with color images from paintings, sculptures, vases, and other art from different periods, this diminutive misnamed reference work is organized thematically, rather than alphabetically. Many of the mortals who peopled the Greek myths and epics are here, including Odysseus, Jason, Helen, Daedalus, Icarus, and Achilles. An alphabetic index follows the table of contents.
