Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Psiloriti a Dramatic Poem: Illustrative of Life Under the Turk in Crete It is thus the most southern portion of Europe. It is of an elongated form, being not less than 160 miles in length while its breadth does not anywhere exceed 35 miles, and is in some places narrowed to ten or twelve miles. By far the greater part of the island is occupied by ranges of mountains, some of which attain to a very considerable height. Nearly in the centre of the island rises the lofty group, or rather mass, of Mount Ida, now called "Psiloriti" (a corruption of a Greek word, signifying "The high mountain"), which is not less than 8,060 feet in height, forming nearly an isolated mass, separated by tracts of comparatively low elevation from the mountain ranges to the east and west of it. The eastern half of the island is less mountainous, and none of the summits attain so great an elevation; but the central group of the Lasethe mountains rise to the height of 7,100 feet and its summit, like that of Mount Ida, is covered with snow the greater part of the year.
