Product Description

Essex Chronicle, w/e January 31st 2003
A guide book with a difference ... The first hand accounts of holidaying in Greece are all written by self-confessed Grecophiles ....

Book Description
The Greek-o-File Vol I was the first published book of new entertaining and informative articles and anecdotes written by and for people who love Greece and all things Greek - a must for any Grecophile.

Articles in Volume 1 include travel profiles and experiences (mostly of the less touristy places), a Chart of Which UK Tour Operators Go Where in Greece and a Guide to recommended Greek restaurants in the UK, anecdotes and informative articles on Life in Greece, food and wines, History, Mythology, Greek Language, Events, Books, Music and a Short Story and more.

A book to dip into, to read from cover to cover AND to retain for reference.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than a travel guide, 13 Nov 2002
Greek-o-File is unique. It's more than a travel guide, it's a total Greek experience. I can't think of any other publication that combines so many aspects of Greece between its covers. You only have to read the piece titled Disaster & Dichotomy, in the Greek Life section of this book, to realise how deeply committed both Sylvia & Terry Cook are to all thing Greek. In short this is a book which I know I will pick up time and time again

4.0 out of 5 stars More of the same, but that's no bad thing!, 31 Dec 2003
By Mr. N. S. O. Grady "Niall OGrady" (birmingham) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For those of us who devoured Volume 1 it was inevitable we would want Volume 2. We needed to know how Sylvia & Terry would progress, or even if, they would progress, with the rebuilding of their Greek island home. Within the covers of Volume 2 we also found recipes to bring Greece to our dining table, Kephalonian meat pie (with meat!) sounds as though it will be delightful. There are wine reviews. There are tales of the Greek and English Social Security systems and poetry and more. And for the gardeners amongst us some ideas on how to turn our humble patio and veg plot into something more Mediterranean. All this and Myths and legends too....An Excellent work which conveys the love of Greece from both the authors and all their contributors

5.0 out of 5 stars Greek-o-File Heaven !!, 18 Jul 2003
By Nige Pamenter (Cambridge, England) - See all my reviews
The newsletter-style of anecdote and subtle observation works brilliantly here in book form.
You feel close to, and interested in, the different people who travel around this magnificent country and their various escapades. It also conveys the wonderful friendliness of the Greek people and their,(sometimes),gloriously frustrating ways!
The author also conveys a natural warmth and affinity for, and with, the reader. The light writing style easily allows for dipping in & out,each piece being concise yet enlightening. A printed meze perhaps??!
Undoubtedly, my favourite Greek book, anyone who yearns to learn about some of the quieter areas of Greece will enjoy this - highly reccommended.
