Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Cretan Refugees and Their American Helpers
Crete is the largest and most important of the Isles of Greece. It is to them what Cuba is to the other West India islands. It is not so long as the State of Massa chusetts, and has only about half as many square miles of surface. But all Attica, you know, was only a tenth as large as Massachusetts, yet played a larger part in ancient history than the latter has as yet done in modern.
