Book Presentation
Stavros Panagiotidis’ books, “Myths, Misconceptions, and Uncomfortable Truths of Greek History,” dedicated “to those who dare to demolish myths and face the wreckage of new truth,” deconstruct the errors that have passed into history. They refer to antiquity and Byzantium, to Ottoman rule and the Greek revolution, but also cover the twentieth century.
