The Greeks In less than 50 pages

This book is very well written. The author hits every part of the culture and it's stereotypes with extreme accuracy. As a Greek whose lived in the U.S. for half of his life, the book had me reminiscing about my family and customs. A must read for any Greek, or someone married to a Greek.

This small book better describes the average Greek and his society than any book I have read. The author is frank about the good and not so good qualities of the average greek but does it in a way that doesn't offend. I have shown it to greek friends and they agree with most of the descriptions of the greek society,people, and government. recommended for anyone going to greece which is a must see country.
