1982Very Good English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21,5 x 14 cm). In English. 258 p. "Pierre Oberling is Professor of Near and Middle East history at Hunter College of the City University of New York. He is also co-editor of Near and Middle East Monographs and consulting editor of Encylopaedia Iranica. He has lived in Greece, Turkey and Iran. In 1962-63, he taught English in Athens. In 1966-67, he served as Director of the American Research Institute in Turkey. He has written widely about modern Turkish and Iranian history, and has received research grants from several foundations, including the Ford Foundation for Overseas Research and the American Council of Learned Societies". East European monographs, No. 125. Bellapais is a small village in Northern Cyprus, about four miles from the town of Kyrenia. The village was the home for some years of Lawrence Durrell, who wrote about life in Cyprus in his book Bitter Lemons. He mentions passing the time drinking coffee under the Tree of Idleness in the village and there are two places which lay claim to being the spot. Unfortunately his book did not identify it completely, or perhaps fortunately, because two establishments can now profit from the name. His house, up a very steep climb, has a plaque on it and one can have the pleasure of returning by a not-quite-so-perpendicular way that passes by old olive presses.

1892417 pages. Index. Appendices. Footnotes. List of sixty black and white illustrations. A rare surviving copy of this important reference, made all the more engaging by today's environment of competing fiat currency devaluations. "Hitherto Numismatists when stydying the Origines of Coinage had confined themselves to the materials presented to them in the earliest money of Lydia, Greece and Italy, and on the other hand the Metrologists had almost completely limited their range of observation to the systems of Babylon, Egypt, Greece and Rome. As the Comparative Method has yielded such excellent results in the study of other human institutions, I have endeavoured by its aid to get some new principles which may throw some fresh light on the first beginnings of monetary and weight systems." - from Preface.

Several chips from and lengthy openings along backstrip which has become brittle with age. Narrow opening along most of front hinge. Back hinge open. Bookplate discretely removed inside front board.

1982Designed for sailing in the Ionian islands and covering the west coast of Greece, Crete, rhodes, cyprus and the South coast of Turkey. As well as all the practical navigational details it is full of fascinating details of the places,including descriptions of traditional local sailing craft. "This sea-guide replaces the second edition of The Ionian Islands to Rhodes and Southern Turkey, The Levant and Cyprus. One of the merits of this revised and enlarged volume is the comprehensive coverage it gives of a fascinating cruising area that extends from Corfu in northwest Greece to Cyprus and the coastline of Anatolia in the east. For active yachtsman or armchair voyager Henry Denham is an enlightening and invaluable companion for a cruise south from Corfu to the other Ionian Islands - Cephalonia, Ithaca, Zante - with a diversion into the Gulfs of Pátras and Corinth, reviving memories of Lord Byron at Missolonghi and Saint Andrew at Pátras. Then, south again by the western shores of the Peloponnesus to southern Crete, thence eastwards to Rhodes and Cyprus and adventuring still further into the waters of the least-known part of the eastern Mediterranean to explore the magnificent coastline of southern Turkey. Yachtsmen know that in a Denham sea-guide they will find not only detailed advice on cruising, pilotage, prohibited areas, port formalities, berthing, laying-up facilities and supplies but also a wealth of historical and archaeological information about places and ancient sites en route."224 p.Illus. maps. charts.
