A Glance At The Site And Antiquities of Athens
The author writes a first-hand account of visiting various ancient sites within Athens, with the intent of recommending the place as a fascinating destination for North American tourists. They describe the historical importance of the sites and their links to Greek mythology, and refer to the size and atmosphere of the places as well. The text dates from 1873 and is a charming example of the type of laid-back, informed travel that was in vogue in that era.
TIP! This may be a good choice for a student with an interest in Greek mythology or who enjoyed the ‘Percy Jackson’ series when they were younger.
