About the author

Mary E Burt

Mary E Burt was an American educator and editor who prepared myth and poetry for children. Herakles adapts material from a Greek primary-school reader rather than presenting a new classical translation. Working with historian Zenaïde A. Ragozin, Burt arranged stories of the Theban hero alongside other Greek myths in language intended for schools.
