Review this product
  • Was it easy to read?
  • Understanding of the subject matter
  • Was it interesting enough?
  • I liked the writing style
  • I would read a book by the same author
  • I would recommend it for reading
  • Paper quality
  • Very good! In general, Papachelas' books are very well written, like a novel. Simple and understandable for such a politically complex period that ended with the imposition of the Junta. The truth is that you realize how many mistakes can be made in a period and how much the Americans played a role both in this period and during the Junta and up until the occupation of Cyprus by the Turks.
