"It is from the open sea's horizon that he draws his inspiration. The anchor, the fo'c'sle, the marabou and brothels in various exotic countries, excite his imaginations to the point that the world of the sea becomes a metaphor for his poetic philosophy. "A mad dog's howl. / Solong shore and farewell tub. / Our soul slipped out from under us. / Hell has got a brothel too". (Fata Morgana). His erotic ideal is Fata Morgana, a beautiful woman in Celtic myth, heralding disaster; just like the sea that seduces and drowns. Kavadias turned his profession into poetry.

The text is enlivened by the very attractive drawings by Gerasimos Razis - Galiatsatos and many quotations from ancient Greek writers.

This book had to be written. Louis de Bernieres unbelievable lies and historical distortions about the Greek resistance to the fascist - Nazi invaders of their fatherland in World War II, featured in his novel Captains Corelli's Mandolin, could not have been left unanswered. He was badly mistaken if he ever thought otherwise.

The history of Cefalonian costume, of which this study is only an outline, is fascinating for this curious relationship between ural class custom and the impressive store of information rising, as it were out of the pages of the marriage settlements from the documents in the Cephalonian Historical Archives dating from the early 16th century, which reveal the anxiety of parents, who by careful planning seek to secure their daughters marriage life.

We are inspired to write this book following many wonderful hours sitting at tables with Cephalonian friends and relatives enjoying their magnificent cooking in the warm, relaxing atmosphere in one of the most beautiful islands of the Mediterranean. That's the reason why most of the recipes have come from Siora?s in the local community, who were thrilled by our British enthusiasm and eager to pass on their kitchen knowledge, expertise and traditions. Some recipes are preceded by little anecdotes which reflect the humor and eccentricity, for which the Cephalonians are so well renowned.

Where is the Ithaca described in such detail in Homer's Odyssey? The mystery has baffled scholars for over two millennia because Homer's descriptions bear little resemblance to the modern island called Ithaki, one of the Ionian Islands off the coast of western Greece. Homer himself is thought to have lived far away in Asia Minor (western Turkey) several hundred years after the events of the Odyssey, so most experts think that he based his poem on stories he had heard of distant Ithaki.
