Bulfinch's Greek and Roman Mythology: The Age of Fable Book

I think a lot of people miss the purpose of the volume. This is a 19th century course on classics taught in a very classical way. When poetry or other literature based on the mythology discussed is quoted you should pull the work up and read the whole thing. This is of course much easier to do now with the internet then when the volume was first written when this would have been a library course. This makes for a very slow but very rewarding reading effort. I plan to read the other two volumes back to back, so much for a trash novel summer.
