Review
Dotted throughout with rich and informative disquisitions... at once warm, humane and dry in the best sense. --The Times Literary Supplement
It is difficult to think of a writer of guides today with whom to compare de Jongh in his far-reaching familiarity with Greece. To our knowledge, this is the best guide to Mainland Greece in English. --Athenian
