The Student's Mythology A Compendium of Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Assyrian, Persian, Hindoo, Chinese, Thibetian, Scandinavian, Celtic, Aztec, and Peruvian Mythologies

"The Student's Mythology" by Catherine Ann White is an informative book from the 1800s. This overview of mythology is designed for students and explores the myths of the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, and many other cultures. White presents these ancient stories in a way that's easy to understand, not getting caught up in complicated comparisons. She introduces mythology as a set of stories that teach moral and religious lessons, and also tell us about gods and heroes from the past. The book explains why knowing these myths is important for understanding old books and art. To help students learn, the book sorts the gods into different groups, like gods of the sky such as Jupiter and Apollo, and then shares their stories, acting as a tour guide through the realms of ancient lore.
