Hichens begins his journey in Athens, where he is immediately struck by the city's beauty and its rich historical heritage. He visits the Acropolis, the Parthenon, and the Temple of Zeus, and marvels at the architectural achievements of the ancient Greeks.
From Athens, Hichens travels to Delphi, the site of the Oracle of Apollo. He describes the oracle's sanctuary and the surrounding landscape, and he recounts the stories of the priests and priestesses who served there.
Hichens also visits Olympia, the site of the Olympic Games. He describes the stadium, the temples, and the statues of the gods, and he imagines the excitement and spectacle of the ancient games.
In addition to his visits to ancient sites, Hichens also explores the Greek countryside. He travels through the mountains of Arcadia, sails around the Peloponnese, and visits the islands of Corfu and Crete.
Throughout his journey, Hichens is fascinated by the Greek people. He describes their beauty, their hospitality, and their strong sense of national identity.
Hichens's book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Greece, its history, and its culture. It is also a beautifully written and evocative account of a journey through a truly enchanted land.
