Description:Excerpt from Days in Attica: With 17 Illustrations and 3 Plans Since these chapters were written the Greek nation has entered upon a new phase. The Balkan War is over, and it is still too soon to estimate all the results; but even the extension of the kingdom is of secondary importance when compared with the new provinces which recent years have added to the national character - reserve, forethought, self-denial. These qualities are not the results of the war. The successes of the Greek nation, when suddenly called upon to take up arms, were the fruit of a preliminary period of self-discipline. It was the new Greek who heralded the new Greece. Since Mr. Venizelos came into power such important changes have come about that the nation seems transformed. The Constitution has been revised, criminal law amended, the army and navy remodelled, and the police service reformed. Above all, the civil service has been made permanent and independent of party - a change which involved sacrifices on the part of men of all classes. In a country notorious for its frequent changes of ministry Venizelos' Government, after four years of office, is stronger than ever; in fact, the old party divisions have been broken down by a new national consciousness.
