glad-to-see-this-back-in-print

I have a very well-worn hardback copy of this book that was the textbook for a community college class that I took back in the 1980's. While my graduate classes in classical mythology at Johns Hopkins used different texts, I always found this one to be the best. I'm so glad to see that it's available once again.
