I was very fortunate to be given a copy of this wonderful book when I visited Corfu in September, 2018. I read the book at the time and I now enjoy re-reading from time to time. I am visiting Corfu once again I September, 2019 and look forward to continuing my blue plaque adventures. Thank you for your insights and dreams.
