Chrysochoos, John
Beyond the Blue Ikarian Sea :Llife in Greece and North America

Imprint: Pittsburgh PA, Rosedog Press, 2014
Edition: 2nd Edition
Binding: Softback

The innocent early childhood of the author, on a beautiful and serene Greek island, was painfully interrupted by World War II. The inevitable impact upon the development of the author's personality and character, as well as all facets of life in Greece brought about by the war, the occupation, the famine, the flight to Palestine, and the subsequent civil war was profound. It is presented realistically in the first half of the book, from historical and political points of view, as objectively as humanly possible. The second half depicts the author as a university professor in North America, embroiled in continuous struggle, trying to cope with educational, societal, xenophobic, anti-foreign, jingoistic, and racial issues while striving to advance his own scientific career in the face of numerous family disasters. The reminiscence of the blue sea surrounding the faraway island provided him with the peace of mind needed to cope with such complex and difficult issues.220p. Notes [10 copies in Worldcat]. Book.

Binding: Softback

Emma Hallaway has not seen her husband in twelve years -- and that's fine with her. As a young girl, she'd agreed to a simple marriage of convenience, allowing her to pursue her private passion for painting. And though unknown to the rest of polite society, Emma is now one of the most daring and sought-after artists in London. However, when her secret is threatened to be exposed, Emma is forced to open her heart -- and her home -- to a total stranger: her husband. Richard Mansfield, Earl of Asbury, is all too familiar with danger. As a matter of fact, it is hard on his heels when he returns to England. Still, even he is shocked to learn of his wife's scandalous double life as an artist. But once he sees the vibrant grown woman she has become -- so passionate, so strong, and so alluring -- his undeniable attraction to Emma stuns him. Suddenly Richard is determined to turn their sham of a marriage into a true and lasting love. But how exactly does a gentleman seduce his own wife?. Book. Book Condition: As New. Binding: Pbk

Captain Corelli's Mandolin : The Illustrated Film Companion

Imprint: London, Headline, 2001
Edition: 1st UK Edition.
Binding: Hardback , With Dust Jacket

The island of Cephallonia is now familiar as the setting of the novel, "Captain Corelli's Mandolin". This book explores the turbulent history of the island, focusing on the World War II years of Italian occupation, as well as telling the behind-the-scenes story of how the film version was made.;As most buildings on Cephallonia fell to rubble in a 1953 earthquake, the way it would have looked in World War II had to be recreated by sets built for the filming of Louis de Bernieres' now legendary "Captain Corelli\s Mandolin". But do not expect the novel to be reproduced so faithfully because that is not the film-makers\ style. They add their own visions, carefully explained here in an official companion to the movie, and de Bernieres\ introduction shows how he anticipated that. All he could do to ensure respectful treatment of his novel was insist it should not be sold to Hollywood. The history of the filming is itself fascinating - the search for the cast, the locations, even the guns for the massacre of the Italians by the Germans and the other battle sequences. Film journalist Clark has done a good job here, aided and abetted by the stunning Greek island setting and ample action and character stills from the film.. Book. Book Condition: As New.

The Fall of Crete

Imprint: Athens, Efstathiadis., 1993

It was one of the most dramatic battles of the Second World War--a truly epic story. For both Allies and Axis powers, Crete offered immense strategic importance for controlling the Mediterranean, with great naval harbors, level areas for airfields, and mountain anti-aircraft positions. How did it happen, then, that in 1941, German paratroopers--outnumbered 5 to 1 and with only a single airstrip for supply and reinforcement--spectacularly overcame thousands of British troops and an even larger contingent from Greece, to hold Crete till war's end? Even more shocking, all the action took place in a mere five days. An expert historian vividly explains British strategic blunders and tactical failures, along with the brazen efforts of the Germans. 192p. illus. bibliography. Book. Book Condition: Fine.

Clark, Victoria
Why Angels Fall: a Journey Through Orthodox Europe From Byzantium to Kosovo

Imprint: New York, St Martins Press, 2000
Edition: 1st.US Ed..
Binding: Hardback , With Dust Jacket

Victoria Clark travelled across most of Eastern Europe to write Why Angels Fall. Having worked as a journalist in Romania, the former Yugoslavia and Russia for six years, she was fascinated by the Eastern Orthodox churches and keen to unravel their history and beliefs. To do so she journeyed from Mount Athos, to Serbia, Macedonia, Greece, Romania, Russia, Cyprus and finally Istanbul, interviewing clergy and other believers. We're treated to a series of vivid cameos, a few of whose subjects glow almost visibly with holiness, a few terrify and many show qualities rare and needed in the West. As Clark puts it, after the ancient split between eastern and western Christianity, "each side lost something it could not happily do without . at the risk of over-simplifying for the sake of clarity, western Christendom can be said to have lost its heart, eastern Christendom its mind." Her keenness to explain Orthodoxy to westerners stems from a fear that the continent is in the process of fracturing along a thousand-year-old fault line, between the Catholic and Protestant west and the Orthodox east. The book combines high quality, highly readable travel writing with a powerful mix of politics and religion. Perhaps, most of all, it demonstrates the power of history, and of different peoples' conflicting versions of history.460p.+ plates, map. bibliograpy.index. Book. Book Condition: Fine.

It starts at the beginning and shows how the distinctive civilizations of mankind, which now enrich human life, have emerged from a common prehistoric past. It does not set out to describe archaeological data, but rather to outline the story of humanity which archaeologists are now able to re-construct. It follows the vast spread and slow progress of human settlement, the growth of civilization and the beginnings of technology in various parts of the earth; a development so uneven that in some countries Professor Clark's story ends thousands of years ago, while in others we still find prehistoric peoples. 329p + plates, Neat tight student reading copy. a few underinings.
