{"product_id":"9781857542110","title":"Portugal","description":"Professor Saraiva's multi-volume History of Portugal is a celebrated scholarly standard work. Yet, when he published a one-volume Historia Concisa, it proved a run-away best seller in Portugal, and the television series that went with it became a chart-topper. His latest book, produced especially for Carcanet's Aspects of Portugal series, is a history of his country, brief, acute and illuminating, written with scholarly insight and with non-specialist foreign readers specifically in mind. To this main text Ian Robertson, author of the well-known Blue Guide to Portugal, has added a historical gazeteer, brief biographies, chronological tables, maps and other elements which make this an essential Companion, the sort of book that a reader in need of accurate, brief and lucid reference will find useful, and every visitor to Portugal will find rewarding. The book is generously illustrated.","brand":"Jose Hermano Saraiva","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47709582459198,"sku":"9781857542110","price":619.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9781857542110_c6ec29c2-267c-413f-9438-4cf5f84f59a8.jpg?v=1707640135","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781857542110","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
