A review by jenniferaimee
Middle Eastern Mythology by Samuel Henry Hooke

4.0

I originally bought this as research, and, while it did not end up being what I was looking for, it did provide an interesting summary of some of the more prevalent myths of the ancient Middle East and their shared features. Nearly the entire second half of the book concerns the Hebrew myths, and I found it interesting to read about the transition from polytheism to morality-based Judaism. I enjoyed this, but it is certainly dated.
