From the author of the Amazon travel bestsellers The Greek Islands – A Notebook and Crete – A Notebook
Praise for Rhodes – A Notebook
‘Trying to describe Richard Clark’s style of writing is like trying to describe dew on a spider’s web, or the line between sky and sea, his use of words is so beautiful, subtle and soft it pulls you wholeheartedly into his world.’
Sarah Alexi, bestselling author of 'The GreekVillage' series of novels.
‘I recommend the book for any person who has ever dreamed of visiting Greece and Rhodes in particular. I would even say that it’s a must read before planning a vacation because there are so many hidden gems in the book that it would be a shame to miss them when you get to Rhodes.’ Cristina Puscas Why Go Greece
Little more than a stone's throw from the Turkish coast, Rhodes was the final piece in the jigsaw of what is modern Greece. The island has changed its clothes so many times throughout history that it can be difficult to pin down what best reflects its character, and herein lies the Island's charm. The variety of its architecture and the wealth of myth and legend combined with an ever-changing landscape makes for a destination which can hold the interest for a lifetime.
For many it is the Crusader Knights who prevail, for others the lost wonder of the fallen Colossus or the Doric columns of the temple celebrating the Ancient Greek cult of Athena Lindia which presides over the maritime gem of Lindos. Whatever memories it leaves us with, it is an island full of surprises.
The author is a writer, editor and journalist who has worked on an array of national newspapers and magazines in the UK. He is married with two grown up children and lives in Kent.
