Lately I've become interested in the Greek naval hero, Lambros Katsonis. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find anything significant in English and I not only do not have access to Greek sources but my Greek is also quite weak (my fault not my parents'). I'm considering writing a book on him but to make it historically relevant I need help. Anyone? Check out www.fightingbest.com or my upcoming book site www.pankration-novel-patrida.com |

I like the idea ... Here's an article I found online : http://www.mani.org.gr/istor/katsoni...s_katsonis.htm I'll try to get into translating it, since bablefish doesn't really help.
