Speaking of the Acropolis: "How can I describe it, this milk-white miracle of beauty?.." This is just the start to a heart felt thought. This is an interesting book. Especially in the back half of the book, he would give an interesting account of a person that intrigued me to investigate further. So I went through and learned. Listened to recordings of Melba, bios of Edith Thompson and Oliver Baldwin. At times funny or sentimental he didn't try to make a great proclamation about the age 25. He just discussed the varied people he met and his impressions of them. Trying to show what he had gained in his twenty-five years.
