The great popularizer planned to work five years on The Life of Greece, cut it to four-and-a-half to get the book out before election year. First draft was written in what Durant calls "the butcher's book," a mighty ledger. He scattered no less than 2,500 source references (to some 200 sources) through the 671 pages of The Life of Greece.
