[Manuel Barrera]

This was a dated book about the Greek Islands circa late 1990's. I wanted to study the Greek Isles in preparation for my eventual travel there. Lonely Planet is a good series, but the latest editions will be more important for updated travel guidance. Post pandemic versions are likely better guides. It was helpful, however, to read this one.

I actually finished in late Sep ‘23 while on a Greek island cruise. It was an excellent reference as most Lonely Plant books are. Made the Greek islands come alive.
