Strange beasts of all kinds have crawled, wriggled and flown through humanity's imagination since the dawn of time. This profusely illustrated book travels through the ages and around the world to capture these elusive creatures of myth and legend, from dragons and unicorns to far more bizarre creatures. The first section lists over 1,000 creatures in an alphabetical, cross-referenced format. Then the authors treat some of the more interesting beasts in greater detail, including their history, lore, artists' renditions, and probable real-life origins. 360 pp.
