Description

The book "Face to face" is a biographical, autobiographical, historical book and refers to real events that have taken place over the last hundred years.He begins by describing biographical events from the village where a family lived in the 1920s and historically since the outbreak of World War II.The main character of the book is a father, Nikos Karozis, who from an early age, due to Greece's submission to the Germans, participated in the transfer of eighteen officers of the Greek Army from Attica to Alexandria, Egypt, where other Greek soldiers were in the war., the Battle of El Alamein, in the Royal Navy movement in 1944 in Alexandria, the Landing in Italy and the Battle of Rimini, and at the end of the war, in pursuit of the last nuclei of the enemy, accompanied by food convoys and supplies. for the civilian population and the revitalization of the old Naval Administrations that would help in the establishment of the new Greek Administration.He also took part in the peaceful reconciliation of the Greeks, from the civil war that was created after the liberation lasted for at least five years, without the real truth of the events being restored to the Greek people.The current big problem that this book is trying to solve, is the ignorance that the reader has, about the reasons that the Greeks were led to the civil war and their self-destruction.The period of eighty years from the civil war until today can summarize the collective memory and the tradition of a historical era, but it does not clarify the reasons that led the Greeks to the National Divide.The Greeks had planned everything related to the liberation. They had planned everything until the release. Until then, everything was fine, everything was honey - milk, they were all comrades, patriots and especially people, real fellow human beings.But they had not planned. They had not organized, they did not know what would happen, what they would do when they arrived, the release would come. And that's what happened, the civil war came because while they had planned everything for the liberation except her.Conclusion: "We have to make a realistic, realistic plan for success and implement it when we are faced with it."Because the most serious accident that can happen to us is when we will achieve success.There is a strong, almost hysterical demand, both on our part and on the part of all people in the world, to inflate our pockets with money.I made great efforts to penetrate and associate with all kinds of people I met in front of me, so that I could really get to know life.From a young child at the age of four, I began an adventurous search for knowledge by associating not only with those who liked me but also with everyone else. I considered them all friends, I didn't consider them my own people only those who liked my parents but I also hung out with the people who disliked them, many times I even shared their dislike. In elementary school, high school, high school, polytechnic, I continued in the same way the search for human knowledge and I achieved a lot by always listening to all human opinions whether they were similar, new, unknown in my opinion. A typical example is what I remember from the events of the polytechnic in 1973, on the fifth floor where I went with two of my classmates, Costas Kourtoglou and Lambros Kassagiannis, right-wingers but not juntas, as they disliked the military. There, in the building of the engineers, we went to eat a very typical meal, a plate of lentils, but because we slept on the desks the previous days and we had not eaten this day before, I asked the waiter, cook to put me a little more than a spoon lentils and the cook told me it would not reach everyone. I was then in the University trade union movement of Mr. and Costas turned and said to the cook: "Dude, if we wanted to eat, we could go somewhere else." Because I talked to all the people, no matter what job or ideology they had, I was often misunders
