Nuno Higino - Historia Breve da Cidade do Porto (bilingue)

This is a light text, primarily intended for those looking to learn about the history of Porto.

It will be very useful for tourists who visit the city daily. The text is bilingual (Portuguese/English). While not striving for academic scientific rigor, it nonetheless presents the facts and events that shaped the city in a credible manner. Condensing so many centuries of history into so few pages is no easy task, but this small volume will help tourists and those curious about the city's history want to learn more about it.

It is a kind of introduction, nothing more. Evelina Oliveira, one of Portugal's finest illustrators, created around 50 images depicting the figures, monuments, places, and events that characterize the city and its free and vigorous spirit.
