When is a story more than just a story? When does it become a myth? When it holds a piece of truth about our history, our morality, and the cosmos.
Throughout history, humankind has used stories to explain the unknown. From the cycle of the moon to the changing of the seasons, tales about supernatural beings and events have served to account for the purpose of the cosmos. But mythology isn’t entirely fiction. These stories have been passed down for generations for a reason. They also hold a kernel of truth about our ancestors and our world.
You’ll:

Take a peek at the stories on ancient Jewish scrolls that became the cornerstone of Jewish traditions, teachings, and laws
Listen to ancient Egyptian tales of Ra, Isis, Osiris, and Horus and glimpse the core of Egyptian understanding of the cycles of nature
See how the myths of the Norse and Vikings are tied to the growth of life and seafaring raids
Glimpse the development of Christian faith and belief through the ancient stories of creation, floods, and Armageddon
Learn how the Romans wove the tales of their people into lessons of morality, integrity, and politics
Watch the Greeks capture their ideas and beliefs into narratives and poems of heroes, tragedy, and victory

Start your journey through humankind’s oldest tales with Folklore, Myths & Legends: The History of Gods, Men and the Mythologies of the World and learn how ancient humans understood and explained the questions of the universe.

“Just wonderful, I never had time to read except in the 10 minutes before bed, by then I’m already falling asleep and have to re-read the next night as it didn’t retain. Now I can listen to books while travelling, doing the housework, getting ready for work each morning. I’m getting through all the books I’ve been meaning to read for years in just a couple of months.”
