The science of Comparative Religion is still so young that information on many matters embraced by it has not found its way as yet into ordinary encyclopsedias ; and of special encyclopaedias or dictionaries very few have been published. It is a storehouse of learned discussion and information, but its size places it as a household work of reference beyond the reach of many readers. A felt gap is filled very usefully by the handy Dictionary of Non-Classical Mythology. It may seem a bold undertaking to seek, as the present writer has done, to present in a volume of moderate size information about most of the ancient and modern religions, ethnic and historical.
