It would be unfair to call this a disappointment: anyone familiar with these Middleton Press photo albums will know pretty well what to expect from it. We get thumbnail sketches of the histories of the various lines, a brief run-down of the locos and rolling stock they have owned, and about a hundred black and white photos, mostly taken in the 1960s by D. Trevor Rowe.
The little text we get is badly written and unattractively laid out (the publishers obviously assume that the people who buy books like this don't like to read) so perhaps it's a mercy that it's so short. But it does give the tantalizing suggestion that the author knows a lot .about the subject and could have written an interesting book, given a bit of editorial support. A pity, given that there is so very little else available in English on Greek railways. But I suppose we can only blame ourselves if we're too lazy to learn modern Greek... ( )
