Product Description
Beasts and monsters, like ghosts, always exercise a peculiar fascination over the human mind, even though they embody terrors, horrors, matters from which we recoil. The exact origins of some of the beasts of myth and mystery which have come to us from the ancient world would have perhaps been lost in the mists of time. This selection of beasts of European myth and legend, however, gives a glimse of the perilous world that lurked beyond the ordinary daily consciousness of the folk for whom these stories had great meaning.
