David Brewer narrates the entire terrifying and shocking story of the Greek Revolution, from the actions of the most important philhellene, Lord Byron, and the most charismatic Greek, Kolokotronis, to the machinations of the Great Powers and the climax at Navarino, in the last naval battle ever fought under full sail.

For patriots looking for an objective source of information about the glorious revolution of 1821, do not get it. Personally, I found that the author justified and concealed the disgusting and vile way of "governing" by the Ottomans and mockingly dismissed the idea that the Turks were violent and rapists of Greek captives, saying that these events were rare and that Greek children worked in the fields in the mornings, so they were not in school at night. Anyone paying attention to history from school, reading books like the bloody lands of Didó Sotiriou, or simply having traces of national consciousness, would not bother with this book. Of course, many will say that there are many sides to this issue of Ottoman rule, but personally I do not agree with the one presented in this particular book. I'm not saying that the Turks are monstrous creatures even today, but I certainly believe they were during those 4 centuries.
Like all history books, it is easy to understand. Enlightening as we should see things from multiple perspectives. Overall, the 3 books summarize our history for the past five centuries. I recommend them.
