The Book of Myths
London: George G. Harrap & Co. 1939. 287 pages. Pronouncing list of names. Illustrated in half-tone frontispiece and 7 other plates and black-and-white numerous illustrations. Bound in blue cloth printed with design and titling in three colours. Mildly bumped corners generally light wear to extremities with tiny split to top of spine spine slightly darkened. School book with slip of paper tipped-in bearing embossed seal of Oshawa Collegiate and Vocational Institute and 2 neat student names; pencilled "31" on half-title page no other marks. Tight binding clean unmarked pages throughout. Collection of myths from various traditions worldwide with introductions bearing a distinct flavour of editorial prejudices typical of the early 20th century: the "spirit of Greek mythology is high and splendid"; the Norseman was "wild and rough in his joy as in his toils"; the Chinese are "naturally an unimaginative people. their myths therefore are mere childish tales"; "Until recently it was widely believed that the Australian natives had no religious beliefs . but now there is no doubt that the blackfellow seemingly so low in the human scale is possessed of an intelligence and a moral sense which link him with the rest of the human family". The myths are all literary and polished retellings rather than translations from sources and sympathetically treated whatever the author's opinions of the originators. Hard Cover. Very Good. Illus. by Various Artists. 5.25 x 7.5 in. 13cm x 19cm. George G. Harrap & Co. Hardcover
