Description: NOTE: MINOR BROWNING OF PAGES.INSIDE CONDITION IS GOOD.// The classical gods of Rome uncoiled from the fertile imaginations of the ancient Greeks whose gods were passionate and violent, jealous of their powers and subject to both mighty outbursts of love and all-consuming bouts of vengeful war. These gods would constantly meddle in mortal affairs, taking sides and making things happen for their own amusement. Tales of epic wars sat alongside folk tales involving heroes and nymphs, enchantment and trickery, all influencing the resourceful and emerging civilization that formed the basis of Western culture, providing a tradition of fabulous tales that are retold in this new book.
