8th edition of Rough Greece, bigger and better than ever.
The Rough Guide to Greece, now in its eighth edition, remains one of the most comprehensive (and longest-established) guides on the market. Marc Dubin, veteran Greek trekker and island-hopper, brings you the benefit of his expertise with the best hikes on Pilion and Epirus, as well as the inside story on the Dodecanese and East Aegean archipelagos (where he lives for part of the year). Another trek leader and botanist extraordinaire, Lance Chilton, has revamped the Peloponnese and Argo-Saronic islands. The sections on Thessaloniki, 1997 European Cultural Capital, and Mount Athos are the most in-depth available in English. Long-term Cretophiles John Fisher and Geoff Garvey distill the best of their stand-alone Crete guide to the Crete chapter of this book. Lance and Marc respectively turn in practical, readable sections on wildlife and Greek music, complete with a buyer's guide for CDs. And of course there's the in-depth history section, with a real grip on recent events and current trends. Some other guides may have more colour pics, gimmicks, whistles and bells; the Rough Guide's strength remains what it always has been - substance, Greek-speaking and -reading researchers (thus far fewer howlers!) and value for money facilities, neither dosshouse nor expense-account behemoths.
