It's also the centenary of the birth of the modern passport, meaning that when Paddy (as all his life he was universally known), aged 18 and harbouring literary ambitions, decided to walk across Europe to give himself something to write about, passports were just as young as he was, and applying for one was still something it was hard to take seriously.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EFrom \u003Ci\u003EA time of gifts\u003C\/i\u003E, the first of his trilogy of books about his 'Great Trudge', as he called it:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\"Profession? 'Well, what shall we say?' The Passport Official had asked, pointing to the void. My mind remained empty.\"\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ECasting about, he hums the song from Al Jolson's latest movie,\u0026nbsp;\u003Ci\u003EHallelujah I'm a bum!, \u003C\/i\u003Ewhich has been running through his head for days.\u003Ci\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/i\u003EThe Passport Official tells him 'Well, we can't put that!' and suggests he put 'student', not knowing how many schools he'd been expelled from. So 'student' it is, although 'footloose romantic scribbler' would have been more apt.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EYou'll see Patrick Leigh Fermor referred to as a travel writer, even as the finest travel writer of his time, which is a long time given that he lived to be 96, but it's a categorization which doesn't do him justice. To me he's more like the last in a line of romantic adventurers with a literary bent which comes down from, say, the erudite Victorian explorer Richard Burton, the first European to reach Mecca (in disguise, risking his life), through T.E. Lawrence, that \"very inspiring gentleman adventurer\", as a fellow army officer described him, whose first trek East, let's not forget, was for archaeological interest in the crusader castles of Syria, and on through the brilliant aesthete Robert Byron, already the author of six books on travel and art history when Paddy was setting out on his first journey, ten years Paddy's senior, the perfect age difference for a bit of hero-worship.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EPaddy in fact is thrilled when Mark Ogilvie-Grant lends him a rucksack for his journey which he had carried on his travels around Athos with Robert Byron. \"Weathered and faded by Macedonian suns, it was rife with mana,\" he exults, and he filled it with army surplus clothes, a sleeping bag, a couple of white linen shirts (for occasions), notebooks, a tin of pencils, plus the \u003Ci\u003EOxford Book of English Verse \u003C\/i\u003Eand a volume of Horace. Just so you don't think this is a bit too much, he soon loses both the sleeping bag and one of the books of poetry, and realises he doesn't miss either one.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIt took Paddy over a year to walk from Rotterdam to Constantinople, as he always called it, refusing to use the name the Turkish Republic had imposed on the city the Emperor Constantine had founded as the new Rome. In the course of that year he had known the \"ecstasy\", as he described it, of realising that nobody in the world knew where he was, and that he had to be a writer. And from then on, he made the rest of his life be about that. Though of course there were other loves, too: knowledge, including a particular passion for exotic historical arcana, friendship, good conversation, song, women, drinking and smoking (both of which he did prodigiously), and saying things backwards.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn\u0026nbsp;\u003Ci\u003EA time of gifts\u003C\/i\u003E he declares himself addicted to this practice, which he links back to having gazed out of many windows of restaurants and cafes, deciphering the writing on the glass. He gives the example of 'Ode to a Nightingale', which he used to like to recite backwards on the march, noting the \"arcane and unearthly beauty\" of the lines, such as\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ci\u003EYawa!

I wouldn't call it a love, but he certainly demonstrated an enormous gift for warriorship, including the fabled action (a movie was later made about it, starring Dirk Bogarde as Paddy) he carried out with a small band of men, dressing in stolen German uniforms and kidnapping the German commander, driving him in his own car through 20 German checkpoints before marching him across the island to a beach where they were picked up by a British launch.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ctable align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ctbody\u003E\u003Ctr\u003E\u003Ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003E\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-vKaYAmae4MA\/VQz_QQn4oYI\/AAAAAAAAA3E\/FzFj-8SdI_I\/s1600\/Paddy%2Bin%2BCrete.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003E\u003Cimg border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-vKaYAmae4MA\/VQz_QQn4oYI\/AAAAAAAAA3E\/FzFj-8SdI_I\/s1600\/Paddy%2Bin%2BCrete.jpg\" height=\"199\" width=\"320\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/td\u003E\u003C\/tr\u003E\u003Ctr\u003E\u003Ctd class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003EIn their stolen Wehrmacht uniforms (Paddy on \u0026nbsp;right)\u003C\/td\u003E\u003C\/tr\u003E\u003C\/tbody\u003E\u003C\/table\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe book which was my introduction to Patrick Leigh Fermor is \u003Ci\u003EMani\u003C\/i\u003E, in which he describes his travels through the most remote area of the southern Peloponnese, recommended by a friend who shared my passion for Greece, and travelling in Greece. Reading the book I could see that everyone voyaging south through the Peloponnese gets the same geography lesson, in which a hand is held up for a map, perhaps a residue of the days when Greek sailors -- I learned in \u003Ci\u003EMani\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/i\u003E-- navigated with their fingers. I still remember the modern-day Lacedaemonian who gave us ours, on our first trip. \"The Peloponnese is a hand with three fingers extending into the Mediterranean. The Mani is the middle one. The wild one.\" Mountainous, arid, its fierce inhabitants noted for their historical trades of pirates (by sea) and robbers (by land).\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBut the Mani turned out to be also a place of boundless hospitality and suggestiveness and I can easily understand why Patrick Leigh Fermor came to love it so much he built himself a home there, with nine-foot high bookshelves, in the little town of Kardamyli. Bruce Chatwin, who if life were fair would have been the one to carry on the line of literary adventurers, spent many months there, thinking and walking, while grappling with the writing of \u003Ci\u003ESonglines\u003C\/i\u003E, and requested that after his death his ashes be taken there.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EHere's a passage from \u003Ci\u003EMani \u003C\/i\u003Ewhich is quintessential Patrick Leigh Fermor:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\"The air in Greece is not merely a negative void between solids; the sea itself, the houses and rocks and trees, on which it presses like a jelly mould, are embedded in it; it is alive and positive and volatile and one is as aware of its contact as if it could have pierced hearts scrawled on it with diamond rings or be grasped in handfuls, tapped for electricity, bottled, used for blasting, set fire to, sliced into sparkling cubes and rhomboids with a pair of shears, be timed with a stop watch, strung with pearls, plucked like a lute string or tolled like a bell, swum in, be set with rungs and climbed like a rope ladder or have saints assumed through it in flaming chariots; as though it could be harangued into faction, or eavesdropped, pounded down with pestle and mortar for cocaine, drunk from a ballet shoe, or spun, woven and worn on solemn feasts; or cut into discs for lenses, minted for currency or blown, with infinite care, into globes. On top of this, all the nautical wind-talk and scrutiny of the elements fills it with innumerable unseen coilings and influences and cross currents and comings and goings. It is no wonder that the Greek word for wind -- \u003Ci\u003Eanemos -- \u003C\/i\u003Eshould have produced the Latin word \u003Ci\u003Eanima, \u003C\/i\u003Efor soul; that \u003Ci\u003Epneuma \u003C\/i\u003Eand \u003Ci\u003Espiritus \u003C\/i\u003Eshould mean spirit and breath and wind in both languages.
