2004"In the old days, even fifteen years ago, you had to be tough to venture into most of Greece's mountains. And I don't mean just to walk or hike amongst the glorious peaks or verdant upper pastures. Surviving the nights in a bleak, unheated room required even sterner stuff. We faced the nights with the help of a small potbellied stove and immoderate quantities of rough local wine. But these days one doesn't have to suffer. There are signs that a revolution is taking place in formerly remote mountain regions." Whether in hot pursuit of a rumored revival in the mountains, a riveting fresco hidden in an Attica church, a new find in the archaeological sites of the Peloponnese, or even just a very good island wine -- Diana Farr Louis has been taking to the roads less traveled in Greece for the last forty years and coming back to Athens with ever more stories, recipes, and a deep sense of what makes the country what is today. In this collection of articles printed in the Athens News from 1997 to 2003, the paper's foremost travel columnist recounts her day trips around Athens and short weekends further afield, bringing together the history, mythology, cuisine and culture of each place with the ease of a local, and the eye for detail of a modern day Pausanias. Athens and Beyond is divided by region into chapters on Athens and Attica, the Peloponnese and Central Greece, and nearby Islands. It also provides practical information, updated for this edition, such as restaurant and hotel recommendations, phone numbers and museum hours, leaving travelers to the thrill of the chase. 225p.illus.[col.] Book

2006Perhaps the most acclaimed photographer of cats in the world, Hans Silvester returns to his beloved Greek isles...for this glorious new collection of deliciously sun-drenched photographs. Cats in Love reveals the full wealth and intensity of feline affection -- from the amorous prowl of a tomcat to the motherly tenderness of a tabby; from the playful nips of tussling kittens to friends caught curled up in a nap; from a pair of young acquaintances shyly rubbing noses to a couple of old friends grooming each other. Set against the idyllic white-washed villages of the Mediterranean, this is love in all its sweet diversity. Sure to delight fans of Silvester's previous work, Cats in Love will certainly charm softies of every stripe. 152p. of wonderful colour photographs. A delightful gift book for fans of felines!
