Robert A. Segal
A working knowledge of classical mythology offers instant kudos. Odyssey through these fifty 30-Second legends to discover what Hercules did to deserve his 12 labors, why Odsseus took ten years to travel 500 miles, and how Narcissus found the love of his life. And that’s before we get on to the gods.
