Book Description

The Mani, at the tip of Greece’s–and Europe’s–southernmost promontory, is one of the most isolated regions of the world. Cut off from the rest of the country by the towering range of the Taygetus and hemmed in by the Aegean and Ionian seas, it is a land where the past is still very much a part of its people’s daily lives.

Patrick Leigh Fermor, who has been described as “a cross between Indiana Jones, James Bond, and Graham Greene,” bridges the genres of adventure story, travel writing, and memoir to reveal an ancient world living alongside the twentieth century. Here, in the book that confirmed his reputation as one of the English language’s finest writers of prose, Patrick Leigh Fermor carries the reader with him on his journeys among the Greeks of the mountains, exploring their history and time-honored lore.

Mani is a companion volume to Patrick Leigh Fermor’s celebrated Roumeli: Travels in Northern Greece.

Customer Reviews:

If you like showy writing.......2007-07-09

Leigh Fermor has written one (actually,two) of the best travels books in English, "A Time of Gofts" and "Between the Woods and the Water." This is not quite up to them--a bit of the edge has gone off the subject matter--but if you like showy, razzle-dazzle writing from a master stylist and raconteur, this will do very nicely.

Often Brilliant Writing.......2007-02-24

In this entertaining book, Leigh Fermor describes his travels in the Mani peninsula, the southernmost and at the time of his writing, one of the least developed parts of continental Greece. Like some of his other books, this book describes a traditional society that was disappearing at the time of his writing. Mani combines some brilliant descriptive writing, particularly with respect to landscapes, keen social observation, and a series of historical asides inspired by his travels. All of these components are individually compelling and the quality of writing is unusually good. There are times, however, when some of Leigh Fermor's asides tend to overpower the primary narrative which tends to disrupt the narrative flow.

A book to be savored like a fine wine or dessert - .......2006-11-06

Alhtough I'm Greek American, am not particularly a Grecophile. While in Wash, D.C., a book seller recommended Mani and I got hooked. This is a book that I enjoy so much that I savor it in small pieces - the writing is fine prose, sometimes random, and a somewhat free association but what a feeling for Greece it imparts! Some sections have more details, minutae than one might be able to appreciate, but overall this is an awesome book. Makes one want to adventure travel to this area of remote Greece. The writing has such a fine patina - one can hardly stomach reading magazine travel articles in comparison to this book. Thanks to the person who recommended this book to me. For those interested in Greece, Fermor's books will be especially appreciated.

You owe it to yourself to read Patrick Leigh Fermor.......2006-04-16

The NYRB Press has done the world a great service by re-issuing Patrick Leigh Fermor's travel books about his 1939 trek across Europe (A Time of Gifts and Between the Woods and the Water) and his stay with the Mani in Greece(The Mani). To call these "travel books" is to understate their value. Fermor is a supremely gifted writer with an encyclopedic knowledge of European history, and traveling with him through Europe on the eve of World War II is an education to equal anything you might pay a university $30,000 a year for. Fermor was a unique and original 20th century spirit -- talented, curious, intelligent, adventurous, brave and much more. He not only wrote and traveled, he inserted himself into the nexus of the war and carried out spy missions and acts of bravery that showed he was a man of action and conviction as well as a man of ideas.

Anyone who loves words and loveds to learn deserves to experience his books. Please do yourself this favor.

Museum-quality guide !.......2006-08-15

I have just returned from Athens and was greeted by this beautiful just-released Knopf Guide.
It was such a pleasure to revisit those sights I miss so badly - History, culture and the sights of Greece are presented in an easy-to-read, concise format, with superb graphic presentations. One almost feels like they are viewing the museums or ancient sites referred to within.
This Guide is well-researched, fresh and definitely current !

Useful Book but too much info to sift through.......2006-03-26

I thought this book was useful but there was so much information to get through. When I travel, I normally don't read up on the local plant life or different species of insects in that area first. But there are lots of pictures and overall, it's a helpful guide.

Exploring the secrets of the Peloponnese.......2005-03-04

We did six walks from the book. All of them were shortened versions of the original longer walk.
The book is extremely helpful on arranging the logistics of how to reach the stating point and returning from a walk.
Most walks are very clear and precise, but sometimes the times are not accurate so one should walk carefully and pay attention.
To summarize, if you want a taste of the natural splendor of Peleponnese, this book is a must. (Walks 23 is very confusing so one should start early and have patience for the "barely-used trail through bush hillsides")

Great for entrepreneurs!.......1999-07-13

How would it help your business if you could accurately predict your cash flow through the end of the year and beyond? As Corporate Controller for Amerace, a manufacturing company with $250 million worth of sales across 10 divisions, Martin D'Amico saw first-hand the need for improved control and reporting of cash. D'Amico developed a revolutionary method used to forecast cash flow. He used the established manufacturing cost accounting concept of Earned Hours as a multiplier and productivity measurement. Earned Hours became a daily and weekly cost-control device for measuring labor variances on the manufacturing floor. Products earning and accumulating hours gave D'Amico deep insight into the control of margins for each division of the corporation.

In How to Predict Year-End Cash & Energize Any Size Business, D'Amico explains his accurate new method to help you do just that: calculating sales by the hour and labor by the hour. Clearly written and loaded with useful tables, How to Predict Year-End Cash & Energize Any Size Business is written for the average business person, whether it be the general manager of an operating unit for a large corporation or an entrepreneur of a small start-up company. In today's high-technology era, everyone is searching for a faster, more efficient, way of doing business. D'Amico's technique is a classic case of working smarter, not harder. By using a simple spreadsheet approach, he connects the two principal and most volatile statistics of a business - Sales Units and Labor Hours. Productivity samples from businesses such as restaurants, retail stores, publishers and agencies are included in How to Predict Year-End Cash & Energize Any Size Business.
