Desiring to present the cause of the Dodecanese before the Peace Conference we have enlisted the services of the most truthful of all witnesses, the photographic lense, in order to illustrate the history of the islands from the days of Homer till the present time. A glance at three hundred and twenty-two pictures contained in the present book and a perusal of the brief historical outline, by which they are accompanied, cannot fail to convince the reader that the Dodecanese was Greek in the Homeric age, Greek in the time of Pericles, Greek under the Roman dominion, Greek in the Byzantine period, Greek under Turkish tyranny, indeed, that it has been Greek throughout the three thousand years of its history, Greek, always Greek, and only Greek.
