It gives an over-view of the hero cults and ancestor worship up until the Iron Age (sometimes going a bit further to prove her point). It's thorough; explaining all of the research done in each grave site. It's obviously a very scholarly; very dry book. Its not for beginners; although manageable if you have google open and are willing to search every other word...and I speak from experience. The only issue I had with this book is that the index is off by a few pages; making it completely useless.Note to people who own the book: If the index is being difficult; google books has the preview. Just go to the book preview; search the key term you're looking for; and even if the page isn't available for preview it will tell you which page the term is actually on.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Don' buy: you will just get a photocopy; not the real bookBy IpsaruinadocetDon't buy this book: it's NOT the 1995 paperback edition as advertised on ; but a cheap print-on-demand copy of that edition (my copy was actually printed in Lexington; KY; the same day I submitted my order through ): the book - and particularly the misprinted cover - looks like a cheap photocopy and is by far not worth the $46 they will charge you for it.
