Description
The book includes Malcolm Burr's World War 1 experiences in Salonica where he was was given "the task of organising a battalion of road-menders out of a mixed herd of refugees, including Greek peasants, Serbian fugitives, and laborers from all over the Balkan States". "Cheek by jowl with entertaining anecdotes of camp-life, of cheerful supper parties when the wine flowed freely and gipsy fiddlers played till dawn, of exciting encounters with wolves and bandits, are many semi-scientific dissertations. The descriptions of the flowers, trees, insect and animal life of the Balkans show the loving eye of the artist as well as the keen observation of the naturalist. The book is admirably illustrated with photographs, many of them taken by the author". From a 1935 review of the book https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/36189966/2689315
