Publisher's Synopsis
This title tells of the author's exciting life exploring a remote region of the southern Peloponnese with her partner, Geoffrey. Based on her journals, it was written before she left Greece for France to cruise the French waterways on their canal boat; their story, 'The Voyages of de Villehardouin', was published in 2018. This was followed by 'A Third of a Pond' published in 2020, describing their idyllic life in rural France and the restoration of a two-hundred-year-old farmhouse with its neglected garden. Join Valerie in the remote and barren region of the Deep Mani - a land of savage history where fleeing Spartans in the eighteenth century built their fortified villages and soaring feudal towers in the southernmost part of the Peloponnese.
