For centuries Corfu's magnetic beauty has attracted travellers who have sung the praises of the peacock-hued bays the hillsides drenched in silvery-green olive trees & the emerald greenness of the countryside. & when you leave Corfu these will be your impressions too. While time brings change the pristine Corfu so beloved of Lear & the Durrell brothers can still be found
- this book tells you where. It turns the island inside-out & helps you find a Corfu unknown to most tourists. 4 car tours over 50 long & short walks 25 picnic suggestions
