Video of the Monastery of Megisti Lavra at the time (early 1980) the dramatic events of the book took place. Shown are
the archondariki, the bells, the Church, the stasidi, the dirt road to the port, the port, the tower where the policeman stood. Listen to the chant as it was then. Athos of a thousand years is gone, it is becoming a tourist resort.
