The Portugal Story by John Dos Passos
This selective history of Portugal reflects the author's fascination with his own Portuguese/Madeiran heritage. The work tracks the nation's rise and fall as a world power, drawing from the author's travels and archival research. Dos Passos, writes historian J. H. Plumb, brings to his material a novelist's acute eye for human character and a narrative skill that any historian might envy; and he has produced one of the most readable books on the subject that I know.A member of the Lost Generation, author John Dos Passos (1896-1970) authored more than forty works of fiction and nonfiction, including Three Soldiers and Manhattan Transfer.
