Athens: Mrs Alan Wace, 1964 "These stories are not merely the diversions of an archaeologist. Of the nine the two last are actual folk tales told to me in Northern Greece. They are retold from memory and have been given a suitable setting of the circumstances in which such tales may be recited. The other seven are fiction grouped round the personality of the mythical George Evesham. Six of them were composed and told by request for the entertainment of my companions during the excavations at Mycenae. One was even first told over the camp fire on the summit of Mount Hagios Elias and incorporates a local legend about that mountain." ( Alan John Bayard Wace, 1879-1957, Former Director of the British School at Athens) 116p. illus.. 1st Greek Edition.. Original Wraps. Very Good. Illus. by Elektra Megaw.
