During my Navy career ships in which I served visited Athens a number of times. My being an ancient history buff and an armchair archaeologist quickly led to Athens' becoming my favorite city.
This unique little book was like a return visit to Athens for me with the added benefit of the clever overlays showing what Athens was in its days of glory. This book is a priceless addition to my library.

The before and after pictures are an excellent resource when trying to visualize the ancient culture as it might have been!
I recently went on vacation to Italy and Greece and focused my souveneir shopping on these books. I had little problem in Italy but in Greece they tended to be overpriced. I was happy to find my theory true, that I would almost certainly find it on Amazon, and saved myself almost $10. The exact same book was arround 25 depending on your bargaining skills! |
