BOOKS

“Some information about Crete — and especially about the province of Sfakia — cannot be found on a computer, and some other information is not widely known enough for people to search for it. I write briefly about certain things that I have lived, and others that have come to my attention through study and tradition. Many of the details recorded in my books have been kept in my memory or in my personal archive for more than 70 years.”
