Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Book of Giants, Tales of Very Tall Men of Myth, Legend, History, and Science
Man in his youth was so fond of giants that, not finding them large or plentiful enough, he created a bounteous supply. He gave them precedence of him self. In the frozen North they came even before the gods: in the East, after the celestials but before the creation of the world; in Greece they sprang into being just after the Olympians and fiercely disputed the sovereignty of Zeus.
