How much do you know about the Fighters of 1821?

History tells you in which battles they participated, in which they won and in which they lost. It even tells you if they died fighting or if they lived to see their country free. In this book, you will find a lot more about them. Who were their parents, whether they were rich or poor, and what dreams they had for their children.

You will read about their childhood. How they grew up. What they did before they started fighting. Did they fulfill their parents' dreams or did they decide to carve their own path?

The Fighters of 1821 had another side that official history often forgets to mention. They were not just warriors who threw themselves into battle without considering life and death. They were also people who loved, had children, feared, got hurt, cried, made their own mistakes, and regretted them.
The lives of thirteen Fighters - women and men - are recorded in this book with the hope of being a small stone that will bring today's children a little closer to those distant years of the Greek Revolution.
