Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Land of the Wine, Vol. 1: Being an Account of the Madeira Islands at the Beginning of the Twentieth Century and From a New Point of View; With Thirty-Eight Full-Page Illustrations; Maps of Funchal and of the Island of Madeira, Showing the Mountains and Their Heights; And a Section In preparing this work it has been the writer´s aim to present a faithful and reliable description of the Madeiras, and to treat their history as somewhat distinct from that of the mother-country, Portugal, with which, it is believed, they have heretofore been too closely associated by historians. In styling the natives of these islands Madeirans the author has furthermore departed from the custom of all previous writers on the subject, who have called them Portuguese, an appellation which the natives themselves resent. For this divergence from the usual course the following reason is offered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
