Bierlein JF. J. F.
Parallel Myths
New York: Ballantine 1994. Book. Near Fine. Trade Paperback. First Paperback. From the cover "A fascinating look at the common threads woven through the world's greatest myths- and the central role they have played through time." As with many uncorrected proofs the ISBN given here is probably the one used on the hardcover first. This is the trade paperback NOT the hard cover. Book is unscuffed and bright. Unmarked though not newish. We feel that books offered for internet sale should be described thoroughly and accurately. Books listed by Brass Dolphin are so described and graded using the strict traditional standards. For this reason we have virtually zero returns. Ballantine Paperback
