This is not just another travel
book. Nor is it your standard history book. It is a
literary adventure that takes you exploring the history
and culture that made Greece what it was and is. Call
it history on the hoof, your personal discovery of a
whole new kind of travel experience.
Sit with Agamemnon in the palace
chamber where he gathered his chiefs to plan the expedition
against Troy. Stand on the knoll at Thermopylae where
remnants of the Spartan three hundred were cut down
by a storm of Persian arrows. Toe the mark at Delphi,
Epidauros and Olympia, then let imagination revel in
the crowd's roar heard from two millennia past. At Mystras
stand in contemplation above the double headed imperial
eagle marking the spot where the last emperor of the
line that began with Julius Caesar underwent the ritual
of coronation before marching off to meet death and
empire's end battling Turks on the walls of Constantinople.
Get a feel for the history of
the land that is Greece of today and yesterday. It aligns
perceptual, emotional and intellectual values such that
these Hellenic adventures can be a traveler's most memorable
experience, plus be a good read for his armchair cousin
—or for the traveler himself as retrospection
from the vantage point of his favorite armchair at home.
Ah, but you have been to Greece
already? Then join our traveler through the pleasures
of recollection. Let your travels live again in the
mind's eye, now seen more vividly than before as you
gain more than a post card's view of things.
