Dictionary of Mythology, Mainly Classical

although the principal emphasis in Evan's Dictionary of Mythology is on the legends of Greece and Rome, the volume also gives broad coverage to Norse and Arthurian legends. Figures from Egyptian and Babylonian mythology are also included. The Dictionary is functional in form, with all entries arranged alphabetically. Cross-references and indexing add to the accessibility of information. It is witty, learned, and useful--just what we expect from Evans.
