Once upon a time there was an ugly little boy called Peter, who lived in his father's castle in France. He was a restless boy, and liked always to do or to hear something new. His home was very quiet, for his father was a great fighter, and was often away at the wars for months at a time. But though one day was very like another in Peter's life when he was young, he used to hear tales of pilgrimage and of battle that made him long to be free to go out into the world himself.

A sweeping introduction to the great painters of the western world, with relatively brief biographical sketches of the men who shaped the world of art as it is known today, accompanied by samples of their art work. Each story underscores the style and signature techniques for which the artist was best known, and also provides insight into their upbringing, careers, and even the political climate in which they worked. In all, a wonderful collection of stories about a wonderful collection of painters.

Masterful retelling of the Norse myths with vivid pictures of the heroes, including Thor with his hammer, Iduna with her apples, and Loki with his tricks and schemings. Inhabiting a harsh world where character is revealed in action, some draw admiration for their feats of superhuman strength, overcoming apparently insurmountable challenges, while others stoop to deceitful action with disastrous results. A study in contrasts, not without humor, giving the reader lots to ponder.
