“It is a very original and useful book that highlights the impact of the Greek War of Independence both in the immediate Balkan region and as far as distant China and Japan. The authors make use of very different sources and archives in various languages, which is quite rare for studies on the Greek Revolution. The multifaceted narrative shows the broader dimensions of the event and places it in the perspective of global history.” • Anna Karakatsouli, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
