    The Basis of Understanding Our World
  

*by P***J on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2013*

In the general category of history there are very few books available to the dilettante historian about Portuguese history.It is fortunate that Amazon.com has given the general reader access to books not found in Public Libraries or bookstores, albeit the bookstores and libraries are under siege.This is a scholarly tome written succinctly and expertly by Prof. Newitt, the Charles Boxer Professor of History at King's college London.It boggle's the imagination how it is possible to understood the foundations of modern world trade, the history of discovery and imperialism without reading this book. We studied and read about Prince Henry the Navigator, Magellan, Da Gama, Columbus, Drake and have a general sense of events that occurred many centuries ago and are etched in our general knowledge of our world.In a short 300 pages book, Prof. Newitt rebuilds our understanding of how our world was shaped by the Portuguese overseas expansion. The Spanish empire is shown in its proper perspective, the Ottoman's loss of the Ocean Silk Road and one of the causes of its decline, how the Dutch and British got their foothold in Asia and it is the first time I read that Oman was an Empire.Highly readable, mind expanding and highly recommended.

This book is quite comprehensive about the early Portuguese expansion. It was a very good choice and I recommend it.
