About this book
In the early 20th century, Portugal emerged as a nation rich in cultural heritage and historical significance. "Through Portugal" by Martin A. S. Hume captures this essence through vivid descriptions of its landscapes, bustling cities, and the warmth of its people. As Hume traverses the country, he highlights unique elements such as the intricate azulejos that adorn buildings and the profound influence of Fado music on Portuguese identity. This travel narrative serves as an essential guide for students, civic activists, and historians eager to understand Portugal's multifaceted culture. With each page, readers will uncover the beauty and depth of a nation that has shaped European history.
