Reviews

"The coverage of the epics is global and spans all time periods, lands, and faiths. Recommended for all academic and public libraries." - Choice "This is a handy reference work for all libraries." - American Libraries "It is just right for a general audience that lacks easy access to this sort of information, stored away as it is in diverse books and scholarly journals, few of which can boast the encyclopedia's multicultural scope." - Wilson Library Bulletin
