Myths and Legends from Around the World

by Robin Brockman (editor)

Myths and Legends from around the world brings you some of the most influential stories ever told. Encompassing the vast range of human experience, they perhaps tell us all we need to know about ourselves. The tales are drawing from many different literary and cultural traditions - from Scandinavia, the Americas, Japan, Africa, and Europe - and are re-told with the modern reader in mind.

A brief tour of various myths from around the world, about one or two per region. What makes this collection especially impressive is that breadth; few other collections of mythology have myths from such a wide range of locales.
