This encyclopedia is a one-stop source for broad coverage of the world's folk hero tales. Geared toward high school and early college readers, the book opens with an overview of folk heroes and heroines that provides invaluable context and then presents a chronology.

Each entry provides cross references as well as a list of further readings. Continent sections include a bibliography for additional research.
