Recenzje

'… Clogg succinctly pulls together Greece's path to becoming a functioning and integral member of the Western European community of nations, taking Greece from an 18th-century appendage of the Ottoman Empire to 21st-century Europe … a short but complete picture of modern Greece and will be a suitable addition to library collection. Recommended.' T. Natsoulas, Choice Connect
