Greek and Roman Mythology

This was not at all what I was expecting... I thought that I would be getting a book with just text about Greek and Roman mythology. What I found instead was a picture/coffee table book. It was a pleasant surprise made even more pleasant by the fact that the text was not disappointing. Since I do not know much about mythology, this book is a great start for me and perhaps others wanting to more about the mythology that permeates literature and art. The pictures, art and drawings within are fun to look at, if not sometimes misplaced, like instead of Artemis near the text that speaks of her, there is another drawing of a young male god.
