This book is a Memoir & Travelogue of my sabbatical in Thessaloniki, Greece in 1989. It encompasses my personal academic experience as a Senior Fulbright Scholar at the Aristotle University in Thessaloniki interspersed with the unique history of Thessaloniki, Macedonia and Mt Athos. Thessaloniki was a major home to the three great monotheistic religions of Orthodox Christianity, Turkish Muslim and Sephardic Judaism and Mt Athos is an important center of Eastern Orthodox monasticism where the monks have followed Byzantine rules for the past 1,000 years. The book would be of interest to academic scholars planning or having completed an international program, travelers to Northern Greece and those interested in Greek History and Culture.
