Cook (A.B.) Zeus: A Study in Ancient Religion, 3 vol. in 5, first edition, plates and illustrations, light browning to endpapers, M. F. Ashley-Montagu's copy with his ink ownership inscriptions to front free endpapers of vol. 1 and vol. 3 part 1, original pictorial cloth, some light bumping and fading to spine tips, dust-jackets, those to vol. 3 price-clipped, light toning to spines, some chipping to spine ends and corners, some light creasing but a sharp and excellent set generally, 8vo, 1914-40.

⁂ An excellent example of this important work with an excellent association. The anthropologist Ashley-Montagu (1905-1999) has included a copy of a glowing review of this work, published in the journal Isis: "It is a work pressed down and over-flowing with riches, in which the student of mythology, the anthropologist, the theologian, the classical scholar and the student of religion will find a treasure of ideas and facts which is well-nigh inexhaustible."
