Unknown Author

4.9/5 (18740 ratings)

Description:The Plateau of Anatolia, within the encircling barrier of the Taurus, is essentially Asia Minor, geographically an outpost of Asia. its coastal lands 'without the Taurus', whose formative influencres have come largely from the West, are rather 'Europa Minor', geographically a fourth shore of Europe. I have presumed so to define them in the title of this book, a companion to Within the Taurus. It is a title incidentally which, in the political sense, might well be applied to modern Turkey as a whole. For the Turkish Republic, built by Ataturk on western foundations, is gradually developing, like Greece its neighbour, into an integral part of Europe. The book deals, not with a single jounrey, but with a series of journeys, made between 1947 and 1954, ranging from Antioch and the Syrian frontier in the South-east to Adrianople and the Greek frontier in the North-west, covering the greater part of the 'Turkish Riviera' which fringes the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
