In October 1945, at the age of 19, John Freely passed the southernmost tip of Crete on his way home from the war in China, just as Odysseus did on his homeward voyage from the battle of Troy. He has been mesmerized with Homer and the lands of Homer's epics ever since. This will be a traveler's guide to all of those places linked to Homer that can be identified and it will also speculate on where such places as the Land of the Lotus Eaters might be. Freely travels from Troy to the final return to Ithaca, and illuminates how the Homeric epics took their final form and their subsequent echoes in literature, art, legend and folklore.

. The difficulty is that my wife's college roommate and best friend is Turkish and we have gone to the country many times. The lady's husband arranges many trips to the east of the country, when it is possible to go there, and we have seen everything from Gobekle Tepe to modern architecture. The difficulty with the book, which is fine on its own terms, is that when we went to Perge, there was a gigantic Roman city, which, like many of the Turkish sites, is better than anything in Italy. When we went to another town a few miles away, there was a marvelous site that had been the headquarters for Azitiwataya, a Hittite leader who ran one of the many empires after the empire crashed. Turkey has so many wonderful places to see, and the author doesn't mention anything outside his interest.
