This 1856 retelling of the Greek myths for children includes “How Perseus Vowed a Rash Vow, ” “How Perseus Slew the Gorgon, ” “How the Centaur Trained the Heroes on Pelion, ” “How the Argonauts Were Driven into the Unknown Sea, ” “How Theseus Slew the Minotaur, ” and other stories. Kingsley’s child-oriented language gains richness from his true love for Greek mythology.
