I have fond memories of a worn, frayed copy of this book being passed down to me as a child. Ever since, mythology has been my preferred source of escapism.
The 75th anniversary edition is sturdy, well-designed, and simply gorgeous to flip through. It's the jewel of my bookcase. This version transported me right back to that feeling of being eight years old, sprawled on a blanket in the park, immersed in the realm of heroes and monsters.
A true classic. Nostalgia won today!
