Monastiraki Katalimata
«This book is valuable for those interested in landscape studies and ceramics for almost all cultural periods in Crete. Nowicki has walked, slept, eaten, found water, and lived within this environment, forming close friendships with the shepherds who know it best. Consequently, he has documented not just the sites themselves but also the territory between. No one individual working on the island knows more about how these sites evolved or related to one another within complex environments. Few, if any, have been as enterprising or as brave, and the partial results of this lifetimes achievement can be found in this concise and well-organized volume.' -- AJA Online Book Reviews AJA Online Book Reviews»
