Book Review: Exploring the Life, Myth, and Art of Ancient Greece"A good research source... Great explanations about facts and fallacies of these people. The artwork and photographs are excellent and make the book come to life. I would recommend this book and the entire series for any high school library. Not only informative but very interesting."
