About this product
Product Information
A beautifully written travel memoir steeped in history - part Patrick Leigh Fermor, part Alain de Botton- by one of America's leading travel writers, author of the landmark international bestseller Balkan Ghosts Mediterranean Winter is a lyrical account of Robert Kaplan's journey in the off season around the Mediterranean, retracing the footsteps of his youth. A beautifully written meditation on the golden age of travel and the pleasures of history, it takes us from Tunisia, once proud Carthage, rival to Rome, through Sicily, up the Dalmatian coast and into Greece. Mediterranean Winter is alive with the spirits of the past, from Hadrian and Homer to Hannibal and Ibn Khaldun, and closes with a fascinating pilgrimage to Patrick Leigh Fermor, whom Kaplan visits in his hideaway on the Aegean. Great acquisition story- this came to us on the recommendation of Roger Katz at Hatchards, who has been selling the US edition (in Roger's words- 'A modern classic to be read and re-read with pleasure')

- h***i (37)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller kindly got in touch to say the book I ordered did not meet the quality advertised due to being found to be in a poor condition at the packing stage. Unfortuntely no replacement was available and would I like to pick a book of equivalent value from the marketplace - which I did. That book arrived safely and was in the condition advertised. I have used this seller many times before and I am grateful for their quality control decission, rather than send me a damaged book. Will use again.Elements of Programming Style, Secon..., Plauger, P. J. (#146388497207)
