The First Global Village by Martin Page

When I plan vacation, I usually try to read a book about a history of that place. When I visited portual I think I picked the right one. Short, with a great balance between details and overall overview.

Arrigato is from obrigado

I think he is too soft on the Portugal dictator

It is interesting how every dictatorship story starts with fast switch for good and ends with a country that is much wors than where it begun

The story of rebuilding the Lisbon after the flood is so great
