Book excerpt: Excerpt from Athos, or the Mountain of the Monks The sanctuary of the Greek race, which is in a great degree the sanctuary and refuge of the whole Eastern Church, is Athos the Holy mountain.'-stanley's Eastern Chunk. Three years ago an improvement in railway connection placed Constantinople within five days of Paris. The Oriental express running direct from the capital of France to the ferry across the Danube at Rustchuk, in communication with a train to Varna and a steam packet sailing thence to Constantinople, enables the traveller to undertake with but little difficulty 3 jour ney to the great metropolis of the East, and, if he be of the more adventurous sort, to prolong his voyage to the maritime Cities Of Asia Minor, or wander along from island to island in the Greek Archipelago. Few more delightful journeys than these can he undertake, and few will so repay him in refreshment of both mind and body; for in Oriental Europe there are still to be found secluded paths, fresh scenes, and many an untouched mine Of rich and varied interest, Whilst over all there hangs that soft and dreamy Eastern Charm, quite indescribable and only to be appreciated by those who have at some time revelled under its delicious in uence.

Book excerpt: An affectionate testament to Mount Athos, the Holy Mountain, after 30 years of activity of the Friends of Mount Athos00Mount Athos, the home of Orthodox spirituality and monasticism, has been in existence for at least 1200 years. Home to over 2,000 monks, in twenty glorious monasteries filled with treasures, the peninsular is undergoing a transformation and renewal of faith.00In 1956 there was a proposal to build hotels on Mount Athos. Today it hosts up to 1,000 pilgrims every day! Why? This book will help explain this extraordinary place, the current resurgence, the growing population of monks, the sense of purpose, the love and affection that are so much part of the environment.00This wonderful story, with a preface by HRH Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, is told through the recollections of the Friends of Mount Athos, an organisation that has, for thirty years, provided support for the institutions, landscape and people. Here are the stories of enchantment from over forty people of different nationalities, customs and beliefs.00In addition to the text, there are a collection of special photographs and maps.00Peter Howorth and Chris Thomas are long time members of the Friends of Mount Athos and veterans of multiple path-clearing pilgrimages to the Holy Mountain which is how they met. Despite living on opposite sides of the planet, their mutual passion for the planet, geography, pilgrimage and of course Mount Athos has underpinned their collaboration.
