Reviews

This is the first book-length study of Greek mythology as theme park entertainment in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. It shows not only that certain themes and visual cues have global reach, but also that individual parks reflect local conditions - cultural, economic, and political. -- Dunstan Lowe, Senior Lecturer in Latin Literature, University of Kent, UK
