Books in the History of the Greek Revolution 2 volume set series

The philhellene George Finlay (1799-1875) took part in the Greek war of independence alongside Lord Byron. Finlay's two-volume 1861 account ranges from Greece under Ottoman control, through independence, and up to the 1843 unrest that led to the creation of a constitutional monarchy.

Thomas Gordon (1788-1841), a British army officer, was actively involved in the Greek struggle for independence during the revolution of 1821-8. This two-volume work, published in 1833 and drawing upon his extensive personal experiences, provides a comprehensive representation of the Greek Revolution 'as it really was'.
