First line

Most likely when we think of Thebes' earliest history, that is, its founding, we think of Kadmos' trek from Delphi to Boiotia, following the prophesied cow that led him to the city's destined site.

From the rear cover

Early Greek Myth is a much-needed handbook for scholars and others interested in the literary and artistic sources of archaic Greek myths--and the only one of its kind available in English. Timothy Gantz traces the development of each myth in narrative form and summarizes the written and visual evidence in which the specific details of the story appear.
