In this volume Kenneth Maxwell collects some of his most significant writings, following Portugal's imperial journal, from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean and from coast of Asia to the mouth of the Red Sea. He takes the reader on a lively journey from Macao to the Amazon forests, examining major themes such as the peopling of the Americas, the shaking up of continents, the spirit that took a "precocious" Portugal into its imperial venture and the rise of Brazil and is tumultuous history.
