Mythology

    Links not yet active     

     I have, perhaps, stretced the use of the word "mythology" a bit beyond the norm with this list, as I have also incorporated titles dealing with comparative religion as well as a few of more historical than mythological bent. I have done so simply because I believe them to be quite useful in gaining a perspective which might otherwise be missed.
