Description
Star Tales by Ian Ridpath explores the fascinating myths behind our constellations. The ancient Greeks created these twinkling patterns to impose order on the night sky, but modern science reveals that they are actually just glowing balls of gas. This revised and expanded edition combines all the myths in one book, accompanied by beautiful engravings from two leading star atlases. It's a perfect gift for anyone interested in the stars and classical mythology, or for those who enjoy exploring the night sky from their armchair.
