Roman mythology is based heavily on the Greek myths, and the two cultures share many of the same gods and goddesses, under different names. However, Roman myths also include numerous references to real, historical figures. This book highlights stories from the complex culture that was ancient Rome. Each chapter is followed by a Question and Answer section which covers themes, symbols, and characters; and Expert Commentary which makes for great discussion. Detailed illustrations placed in the text tell the stories, as well.

      Each book in this series begins with a lengthy preface, which is followed by six to nine flat retellings with brief introductions, a question-and-answer section, and dense commentary excerpted from scholars. Teachers may find these volumes useful, but young readers will probably find them dry. The books are illustrated with black-and-white line drawings and include maps and a list of websites. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Mythology Titles: "The Illiad and the Oddyssey in Greek Mythology, King Arthur and His Knights in Mythology", and "Roman Mythology". ]
