Biographical sketches of seven important figures in the history of Portugal: King Dinis, Nun’ Alvarez, Prince Henry the Navigator, Vasco Da Gama, Duarte Pacheco Pereira, Affonso de Albuquerque and Dom João de Castro. “Not seven, nor seventy, names exhaust the tale of Portugal’s great men. The reader need but turn to the fascinating pages of Portuguese history. There he will find a plentiful feast set out before him—the epic strife between Portuguese and Moor, Portuguese and Spaniard, and deeds of high emprise in the foam of perilous seas and the ever-mysterious lands of the East.”
