Pencil erasure inside rear board. Includes: illustrations index. Endpaper maps; Midway between Greece and Egypt on the direct sea route from Athens to Alexandris lie the twelve islands called the Dodecanese. Their Greek populationa and Italian political status bind them to continental Europe rather than to Asia Minor. Perhaps the most famous of these islands is Rhodes. This work addresses concerns that the status of these islands should be resolved and makes a case for transferance from Italian political control to that of Greece since the majority of the population was of Greek origin and appeared to desire this political affiliation.
