Sara Baggins's Reviews > The Age of Fable

"The Age of Fable" tells the fables of a wide variety of cultures, but focuses on the Greek tales. This book also includes clips of various poems that refer to the fables, including several snippets of "Paradise Lost" by Milton. And, towards the end, Thomas Bulfinch addresses the many theories about the origin of the fables, and the more famous fantastical creatures that appear in legends the world over.
