Description
This book explores the well-known and unknown triumphs and traits of Greek people. Prominent Hellenes in America explain the role of these Hellenic traits in their success. This is not only a story of the past, but also of the present-from the Golden Age of Greece to today. Filled with little known historical facts about Hellenism and the Greek people, anecdotes of what it means to be a Hellene, and an exploration of the unique Greek word "philotimo," or love of honor, that runs deep within every Hellene's psyche.
Also, His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros introduces a section of personal essays by prominent Greek Americans, reflecting on how their Hellenism has impacted their success.
