Oxford University Press US edition of "The Ionian Islands and Epirus"

Pleased to see that OUP (USA) has now listed "The Ionian Islands and Epirus, A Cultural History" as a forthcoming US publication.

I've also had word from an Australian contact, who's been checking off and on, and "there are now copies in  Abbey's  bookshop behind the Queen Victoria Building" at 131 York Street, Sydney (also available online at www.abbeys.com.au).

The best bit of hype appeared in the Dorset Echo, with the headline "Author's book hits shelves of Waterstones". I had a hard time finding it. There were in fact three copies on display in my local Waterstones, but they were all in the History Section. I asked the helpful assistant to move a few copies to the Greece section under Foreign Travel. She turned out to be of Greek origin, with the surname of Mavromati. She was delighted that I knew the meaning of her name.
