*Book source ~ Home library From Goodreads: Wonderful late-50s illustrations and classic stories such as Heracles, Beowulf, Tristram & Iseult, and Sigurd of the Volsungs. For the most part I enjoyed the stories in this collection, but the writing is simplistic which I guess makes sense since Gol...
