Between 1855 and 1863, Thomas Bulfinch published the three volumes of his masterpiece, Bulfinch's Mythology. Each volume of this signature contribution to literature focuses on a different historical era in mythology-from ancient Greek and Roman fables, to tales of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, and into the Middle Ages with stories of great heroism and romance. A bank clerk by day, Bulfinch sought to bring enlightenment to his fellow men and women through his meticulous research and elegant retellings of some of the world's most important myths. Every reader seeking an introduction, a refresher, or simply a new take on the great legends of the past should pick up Bulfinch's Mythology.

From the Author:
Please be aware that there are many editions of this book. The original text dates to 1855. The only volume with which I have been involved--and which, naturally, I consider the best--is the 1991 HarperCollins hardback for which I provided a long introduction and scholarly notes. Apparently many reviewers on this site have been sold inferior editions by earlier editors, still circulating.
