Framed as a college student telling tales to children, the six stories in this book are referenced so regularly in our modern culture that everybody should be familiar with them.
Included are Hawthorne’s retellings of-
The Gorgon’s Head
The Golden Touch
Pandora’s Box
The Three Golden Apples
The Miraculous Pitcher
The Chimæra
This edition is presented complete and unabridged with both color and black and white images from several early editions. Be sure to pick up Tanglewood Tales for more classic Greek myths retold by the same author.
