Reminiscences of Candia is a historical book written by Wilson Palmer in 1905. The book is a memoir of the author’s experiences and observations during his time in Candia, which is now known as Heraklion, a city in Greece. Palmer was a British diplomat who served in Candia during the late 19th century, and his book provides a unique perspective on the city’s history, culture, and people.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of life in Candia. Palmer writes about the city’s architecture, customs, and traditions, as well as its political and economic situation during his time there. He also provides insights into the daily lives of the people of Candia, describing their food, clothing, and social customs.One of the most interesting aspects of the book is Palmer’s account of the Cretan Revolt of 1866-1869, which was a rebellion against Ottoman rule. Palmer was in Candia during this time and witnessed the events firsthand. His account provides a valuable historical perspective on this important event in Cretan history.Overall, Reminiscences of Candia is a fascinating book that provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of a city that has played an important role in the history of Greece. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Mediterranean region, and for those who are interested in the experiences of British diplomats during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
