Data
The author, captain Dracopoulos, a ship owner from the island of Mykonos and the city-port of Smyrna, devoted all his knowledge concerning the maritime civilization of the Aegean, as well as much of his time and money, building up the contents of his museum; essentially a one-man achievement. Thus, this richly illustrated book is more than just a museum guide.
Total pages 122, square 8vo, white card covers, photos of ancient artifacts, Greek and Roman coins from the museum collection depicting maritime themes, models of sailing boats, documents from the Greek War of Independence etc.
