{"product_id":"mani","title":"Mani","description":"This is Patrick Leigh Fermor's spellbinding part-travelogue, part inspired evocation of a part of Greece's past. Joining him in the Mani, one of Europe's wildest and most isolated regions, cut off from the rest of Greece by the towering Taygettus mountain range and hemmed in by the Aegean and Ionian seas, we discover a rocky central prong of the Peleponnese at the southernmost point in Europe. Bad communications only heightening the remoteness, this Greece - south of ancient Sparta - is one that maintains perhaps a stronger relationship with the ancient past than with the present. Myth becomes history, and vice versa. Leigh Fermor's hallmark descriptive writing and capture of unexpected detail have made this book, first published in 1958, a classic - together with its Northern Greece counterpart, Roumeli.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAuthor: Leigh Fermor, Patrick,author\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Leigh Fermor, Patrick,author\u003cbr\u003eBinding: paperback\u003cbr\u003eNumber Of Pages: 331\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: \u003cbr\u003eLanguages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis\u003cbr\u003ePublished\/Release Date: 19 Jul 2004\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003ePublisher\/Studio\/Brand: John Murray Press\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Director\/Artist: Patrick Leigh Fermor\u003cbr\u003eDimension (cm): 197x130x21 mm\u003cbr\u003ePackage Dimension (cm): 27x198x131 mm\u003cbr\u003eItem Weight (g): 1050\u003cbr\u003ePackage Weight (g): 240","brand":"John Murray","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53368793923881,"sku":"BK0719566916","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/5868\/0105\/files\/81QnEuYx7rL_8e075bd1-3d33-4aad-865e-7c75ed0b36ff.jpg?v=1785474850","url":"https:\/\/www.centloop.com\/en-us\/products\/mani","provider":"Centloop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
