Part of the Classic Library series, this hardbound book includes both Norse Myths (by Belgrave and Hart) and Classical Myths (by Hawthorne).

Read about the lovely Freya, Norse goddess of love and beauty, the thunder god Thor and the shape-shifting trickster Loki. Classical Greek myths are then told, including the story of Perseus in the labyrinth of Minotaur, and the clever wooden horse that brought down the great city of Troy.
