The myths of Ancient Greece are retold from the point of view of the ladies involved.

Each story is illustrated by a painting and two pencil drawings plus there are some simple vignettes scattered here and there thoughout the book. None of the drawings bear titles but, where known, I have shown these in parentheses. I have omitted the simple line drawings, excellent though they are. (There should be some pleasant surprises when you buy the book.)
