Amazing
Great book, very well explaining the history of Portugal. I have learnt a lot about this amazing country, but I feel that the book could have been longer and better explain certain historical events or have 2 or 3 extra chapters covering certain periods more in-depth. Aside that small remark, if you want to learn more about Portugal and its turbulent past, go and buy it.

Five Stars
There are so few excellent histories of Portugal. This is one.

Starts in 1640
This book does not start Portuguese history until 1640 although there is one chapter summarizing Portuguese history up to that point. I was very interested in learning more about Portuguese history in the 1400 and 1500s so somewhat disappointed. Also, very focused on economics and not so much on events.

Probably the easiest to read general history of Portugal ever published
Probably the easiest to read general history of Portugal ever published. The Portuguese greatly value their history as central to their culture – far more than in US culture. This is the book you want to read to show that you care.
