Bulfinch's Mythology: The Age of Fable or Stories of Gods and Heroes
http://www.bulfinch.org/fables/welcome.html
We propose to tell the stories relating to them which have come down to us from the ancients, and which are alluded to by modern poets, essayists, and orators. Our readers may thus at the same time be entertained by the most charming fictions which fancy has ever created, and put in possession of information indispensable to every one who would read with intelligence the elegant literature of his own day."

Zeus was the leader and the others were Hera, Poseidon and Demeter, his sisters and brother, and Ares, Hermes, Apollo, Artemis, Hephaestus, Dionysus, and Aphrodite (more often born from the sea), who were his children.
Wonderful pictures!

Greek Mythology: From the Illiad to the Fall of the last Tyrant
http://www.messagenet.com/myths/
For us to try to imagine the Olympians of The Iliad we must abandon the dramatic stories of the Classical Greeks and the flights of fancy of the Romans. To use them would be like losing your car keys in a dark alley and going down the block to look for them under the streetlight because the lights’ better. Even though the Classical Greek and Roman versions of the Ancient Greek myths outnumber the authentic texts I will try to, eventually, only list the oldest stories on these pages. I hope you enjoy my effort... Xavr

Mythography
http://www.loggia.com/myth/about.html
Mythography was started in 1997 as a resource for information about mythology. Classical mythology (in other words, Greek and Roman mythology) was the original focus of the site. As one of the site's developers is an art historian and writer, the relationship between myth and art was soon added to the Mythography mix.
