Most of the mythology books are boring. MYTHS AND LEGENDS OF ALL NATIONS is an attempt to solve this problem, by telling the stories of mythology in such a manner as to make them a source of amusement. Rather is the book intended for those who, during their reading, frequently come across names which possess for them no meaning, and who care to read some old stories, through which runs the same humanity that their own hearts know. Here, the Author presents Greek and Latin myths in a form adapted to modern taste (PROMETHEUS, THE FRIEND OF MAN, THE TWELVE LABORS OF HERCULES, THESEUS AND THE CENTAUR, THE SACK OF TROY...). He also recounts famous stories from the English, Spanish, Scandinavian, Danish, French, Russian, Bohemian, Italian and other sources (BEOWULF AND GRENDEL, THE GOOD KING ARTHUR, LOHENGRIN AND ELSA THE BEAUTIFUL, COUNT ROLAND OF FRANCE, THE CID...).

The Bible is one of the two or three oldest books in the world, but unlike most of the ancient books, it is found not only in great libraries, but in almost every home of the civilized world; and it is not only studied by learned scholars, but read by the common people; and its many stories grasp and hold the attention of little children. Happy is that child who has heard, over and over again, the Bible stories until they have become fixed in his mind and memory, to become the foundations of a noble life.
