Ancient Mythologies India, Persia, Babylon, Egypt Illustrated by Charles Kovacs and David Newbatt
The meaning of some of the world's great myths and
legends springs to life in this collection of stories, retold here for
children. Through the epic adventures of colorful characters—from kings
and beggars to gods and demons—the reader may glimpse the ancient wisdom
of early humankind.
Spanning the centuries from Atlantis to
the civilizations of India, Persia, Babylonia, and Egypt, the author
portrays human development, from primitive hunters to builders of
magnificent cities and the great pyramids. Buddha, Krishna, Rama,
Zarathustra, Gilgamesh, Isis, and Osiris are just a few of the lively
participants in the unfolding historical narrative.
