Introduction

I want to make The Golden Bough a better experience than just plain text. My new fascination with Wikis is allowing me to do just that. The original text obtained from Project Gutenberg has not been altered in anyway. I have a rudimentary plan on how to do so.

Cross fingers and hope everyone enjoys it

Summary

The following summary is from the Wikipedia article The Golden Bough: a Study in Magic and Religion

The Golden Bough: A Study in Magic and Religion is a broad comparative cultural study of mythology and religion by Scottish anthropologist Sir James George Frazer (1854-1941). Aimed at a broad literate audience raised on tales as told in Bulfinchs Age of Fable, Frazer's book joined the modernists in discussing religion dispassionately as a cultural phenomenon, rather than from within the field of theology itself. Though the final worth of its contribution to anthropology will be newly summed by each generation, its impact on contemporary European literature was unquestionably grand.
