A dedication from the author

First edition. A charming travelogue of Greece, beautifully depicted by the author both in colour and in black and white with some striking illustrations. The first edition. Noted English cartoonist Osbert Lancaster was posted to Greece in 1944 as a press attaché to the British embassy in Athens, where his task was to maintain trust and good relations between Britain and the international press corps. After that, he decided to travel the country, exploring Attica, Boeotia and Arcadia, and also visited Thessaly, Epirus and some of the islands. The present volume, being the first edition 1947, is an account of the author's travels compiled from his observations and sketches, which provides a lyrical account of a post-war Greece as well as a striking picture book.
