The Board of Directors have already bought 250 books
about Portugal to give to the New England Libraries: public, high schools and
universities.
The book is called "Eyewitness to Portugal". It
is published by the British Company Dorling Kindersley Travel Guide. The
title of the book is "Portugal with Madeira & the Azores." It has
more than one thousand color photographs. In our estimation is the most
complete, the best book ever written about Portugal, Azores and
Madeira. This is the best book for the Americans, our children and
grandchildren to read and be informed about Portugal, Azores and Madeira.
