Summary: A good overview of British Philhellenes from 1800-1827
Comment: Introduces the reader to role played by British philhellenes in the Greek War for Independence, 1800-1827. Much of the book is a warm portrait of Lordy Byron and his influence on the other poets, soldiers of fortune, and swashbucklers who participated. Woodhouse nicely places the philhellenese and their sympathies in the context of early 19th century British intellectual thought: many were Romantics and radicals who wanted a cause and loved the cause they found in the Greeks.
