First Sentence

When Robert Byron stood on the peak of Athos at sunset one September evening in 1926, he claimed that to the east he could see not only Lemnos but also the coast of Asia Minor beyond: 'the plains of Troy, whence Tozer saw this platform of ours "towering up from the horizon, like a vast spirit of the waters, when the rest of the peninsula is concealed below"'.
