"An exceptionally interesting book for the study of the history of Kythira, containing 290 notary deeds, among the few that survive from that era. It contains remarkably interesting information about the social and economic life of Kythirians at a crucial period in the island's history.

The work is prefaced by professor Chrysa Maltezou and contains an index of names, place names, monatries and churches, as well as a valuable glossary, allowing for a thorough appreciation of the book, and an index of notary deeds."
