Fermor, Patrick Leigh. Mani, Travels in the Southern Peloponnese. Book Society Edition (published simultaneously with the first). 1958. Book is in very good minus condition; dust jacket is in good plus condition—there is a repaired tear to the spine.

Patrick Leigh Fermor, who died in 2011 at the age of ninety-six, was widely regarded as one of the great travel writers of the 20th Century. He was praised as a “cross between Indiana Jones, James Bond, and Graham Greene,” which sums up this instant classic about Mani, a mountainous and mysterious region of Greece, preserved in amber for thousands of years by its remoteness. With b & w photographs by Fermor’s wife, Joan Eyres Monsell.

“All of Greece is absorbing and rewarding. There is hardly a rock or a stream without a battle or myth, a miracle or a peasant anecdote or superstition; and talk and incident, nearly all of it odd or memorable, thicken around the traveller’s path at every step.”

--Patrick Leigh Fermor
