Ionia: A Quest
by Freya Stark
Product Description
IONIA is a travel book unlike any other that the author has written, for when she went to Asia Minor it was on an exploration into history with Herodotus as her companion.
Ionia and Aeolis, Heracleia and Aphrodisias -- these are names that for many have only the sound of familiarity. Through the author's discoveries we experience them too, and in doing so find a world which, in spite of harshness, conflict and insecurity, contains much beauty and happiness.
IONIA records the first stage of Freya Stark's journey in Turkey through the Seljuk and Ottoman ages.
