More than one hundred travellers record their impressions of Greece over a period of more than three centuries, and recount their experiences in an enchanted land. These wonderful extracts show the travellers, the places they visited, and those they encountered there, at their best and worst. From many rare works now difficult of access, editor John L. Tomkinson has extracted a great variety of writing: descriptive, evocative, reflective and humorous; and a wide range of approaches to Greece, from the unashamedly romantic to the brutally cynical. Not merely a valuable repository of historical evidence, Travellers’ Greece is an anthology which the non-specialist can read with pleasure from cover to cover.
