Heaven on Earth

Here's the link to the free PDF of my book, Heaven on Earth, a collection of 19 of my favourite pieces I've written about Greece for newspapers and magazines over the years. I hope you enjoy at least some of them, and they help inspire your own future travels in Greece... or bring back memories. They sure did for me when I was putting it together.
