Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Salonica Side-Show The sketches which make up the first and last parts of this book were written in odd corners of Macedonia during last summer. I have purposely refrained from bringing them up to date; for by robbing them of their spontaneity, I should destroy what little merit they possess. The second and third parts have of course been written since my return to England. I should like to take this opportunity of thanking my friend, M. Melas, for providing me with, and giving me permission to use, the material for the chapter on "The Tragedy of Constantine." So far as I am aware, no authentic account has yet been published of the inner history of those fateful days; in allowing the publication of much which is of interest and which may assist the general reader to an understanding of Greek politics, M. Melas has had to abandon the attitude of reserve which he has hitherto maintained in the face of the most, importunate journalists, but I venture to think he has rendered a real public service. My thanks are also due to Major H. W. Andrews and Captain L. J. Measures, who have furnished me with the photographs which accompany the book.
