Encyclopedia of Things That Never Were: Creatures, Places, and People by Michael Page and Robert Ingpen

A classic illustrated reference to myths and legends from all corners of the world. Here--culled from mythology, literature, and folk tales--is the mystical realm that has populated humanityÆs imagination for centuries. Over 400 entries, engagingly written and organized by type of entity, make this a complete source of information and a visual feast.

This compilation references myths and fantasies from around the world and human history. Detailed yet succinct, very readable articles are collected under seven topics--e.g, the cosmos, the ground and the underground-- arranged alphabetically by subject. The diverse coverage examines myriad imagined powers and creatures from historical, sociological, cultural, and artistic perspectives, and while many of the ghosts, wizards, gremlins, gods, fairies, and so forth are familiar, many more. Each article summarizes the identity, definition, and aspects of the entity, drawing on material derived from classic studies in myth and lore. The illustrations are extraordinary.
