Cook (1868-1952) published the first version of his monumental Zeus: A Study in Ancient Religion in 1914.

Cook skillfully integrates both archeological and ancient literary evidence as well as offering a synthesis of scholarly knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zeus, a Study in Ancient Religion, Vol. 1: Zeus, God of the Bright Sky Chrysostomos in a memorable sentence declared Zeus to be 'the giver of all good things, the Father, the Saviour, the Keeper of mankind.' On the lower levels and slopes of this splendid spiritual ascent the Greeks found themselves at one with the. Beliefs of many surrounding peoples, so that a fusion of the Hellenic Zeus with this or that barbaric counterpart often came about. On the higher ground of philosophy and poetry they joined hands with a later age and pressed on towards our own conceptions of Deity. I have therefore felt bound to take into account not only the numerous adaptations of Levantine syncretism but also sundry points of contact between Hellenism and Christianity. It is obvious that the limits of such an enquiry are to a certain extent arbitrary. I shall expect to be told by some that I have gone too far afield, by others that I have failed to note many side-lights from adjacent regions. Very possibly both criticisms are true.
