.Nicholas Everard: "Storm Force to Narvik", "Last Lift from Crete", "All the Drowning Seas" v. 2: Mariner of England: "Storm Force to Narvik", "Last Lift from Crete", "All the Drowning Seas" v. 2 Search: Crete by: Alexander Fullerton December 05, 2002 This 690-page blockbuster comprises "The Blooding of the Guns", "Sixty Minutes for St George" and "Patrol to the Golden Horn". If you thought the First World War happened too long ago to be of any possible interest, think again! Fullerton's gift for writing, his eye for detail and his meticulous research put his books in a class with CS Forester. Moreover, unlike Forester - who never fulfilled his ambition to join the Navy - Fullerton saw action as a naval officer in submarines.

.The Body Impolitic: Artisans and Artifice in the Global Hierarchy of Value Search: Crete by: M Herzfeld December 02, 2003 The author takes his title from an adaptation of Cowan's work "The Body Politic". Herzfeld examines the roles of (and realtionship between) the craftsmen in Crete and their apprentices. For an anthropologist Herzfeld has a resonable degree of fluency and most of the Greek technical vocabulary he uses is correct. He also has a fair knowledge of the Cretan dialect - evident in some of his other works. At last we have a more human and sensitive approach that is not marred by the occasional condescending/ patronising tone that is apparent in some of his other works. Even if you do not agree with everything the author writes, there is much of interest in this work, especially for anyone interested in modern Greek culture. >>See More Reviews & Details on The Body Impolitic: Artisans and Artifice in the Global Hierarchy of Value |
