In an exciting and solidly documented narrative, which balances the human aspect with geopolitical and religious dimensions, the acclaimed author addresses Portugal's maritime supremacy, with the discovery of the sea route to India at its core, the victories over Muslim rulers and the dominance of the spice trade, revealing the extent of the Portuguese empire and bringing to life figures such as D. Manuel I, D. João II, Afonso de Albuquerque and Vasco da Gama. The essential and updated account of how one of Europe's smallest and poorest nations set in motion the forces of globalisation that shape the world today. A work that will introduce Portuguese readers to their own history from the perspective of a foreign researcher.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAvailable in English\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-attributes\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Editorial Presença\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition: \u003c\/strong\u003e2016\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/strong\u003eRoger Crowley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"data table additional-attributes\" id=\"product-attribute-specs-table\" style=\"width: 100.089%;\"\u003e\n\u003ccaption class=\"table-caption\"\u003e\u003c\/caption\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left; width: 24.2351%;\"\u003eBinding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Encadernação\" style=\"width: 75.4052%;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left; width: 24.2351%;\"\u003eNumber of pages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"N.º de páginas\" style=\"width: 75.4052%;\"\u003e390\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"col label\" scope=\"row\" style=\"text-align: left; width: 24.2351%;\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"col data\" data-th=\"Dimensões\" style=\"width: 75.4052%;\"\u003e23.5 x 15.5 x 2.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Editorial Presença, S.A.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53062158647632,"sku":"101918","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/9495\/1760\/files\/101918-base-Conquistadores-capa_f5daba89-7ca5-489f-8fff-3f69f2a18fe4.jpg?v=1779793390","url":"https:\/\/www.lojadomuseudemarinha.pt\/en\/products\/os-conquistadores","provider":"Loja e Livraria do Museu de Marinha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
