After extensive research in archives and primary sources, historian author Dimosthenis Koukouas outlines such a critical period, the Occupation. Without blinkers, obsessions, or prejudices, he presents the controversial facts while also highlighting the questions that remain unanswered or have not been convincingly explained, while delving into the well-known or unknown behind-the-scenes.
That era of triple foreign occupation, with all the immediate dramatic consequences it had for the Greek people, is depicted in the first six monographic titles of this work that are already in circulation.
