Cadogan Guide to Crete
written by Dana Facaros, with Michael Pauls

From the Cadogan Guides series.

Fiercely independent, land of myth and mystery, Greece's megal - nisos or "big island" of Crete lies at the crossroads of the Mediterranean. This was the home of Europe's earliest civilization, a place where memory began; today, its olive-shaded landscapes retain a magical sense of timelessness. Cadogan's guide covers every side of Crete, from fabled Minoan sites to Byzantine frescoes, old Venetian cities, intimate coves and spectacular sheer-sided gorges filled with wildflowers and herbs. Chapters on myth, history, art and nature bring alive the island's unique character. This book gives you all you need to experience the pleasures of Crete- its gutsy food and wines, idyllic places to stay, and beaches reachable only by track or by boat, that you may just have all to yourself.

• over 320 hand-picked places to stay
• over 290 restaurants, bars and cafes
• full information on Crete's ancient sites, and a guide to the best beaches
