Product Description
In Roumeli, the companion volume to Mani, Patrick Leigh Fermor explores Northern Greece. He travels among Sarakatsan shepherds, the monasteries of Meteora and the villages of Krakora, among itinerant pedlars and beggars, and even tracks down at Missolonghi a pair of Byron's slippers. The vivid descriptions of the people, traditions and landscape are imbued with an intimate understanding of Greece and Greek history.
