Abstract: 'There are many good books on the mythology of particular peoples or races, ancient and modern, and much material accessible in books of travel and works on ethnology and religion; for classical antiquity excellent dictionaries of mythology exist. There are also books of narrower or wider range on comparative mythology...But a comprehensive collection by competent scholars of myths from all quarters of the earth and all ages has not hitherto been attempted; for several important parts of the field, not satisfactory works exist in English, while in some there is none in any language. On the value of an undertaking like the Mythology of All Races, therefore, no words need be spent.' -- Consulting Editor's Preface
