Description: From cave paintings to cathedral spires, dragons have haunted the human imagination across every continent and epoch. This sweeping study traces the mythology, biology, and cultural evolution of the world's most enduring impossible beast, journeying from Eastern serpents and Norse wyrms to the codified monsters of medieval heraldry and the saints who slew them. In its final chapter, the narrative takes an unexpected turn toward modern Australia, where the dragon takes on new form through the story of rugby league halfback Ben Hunt. A richly researched exploration of why we keep telling — and living — the same fiery story.
