'Raquel Varela and Roberto della Santa narrate, with admirable clarity and power of synthesis, the great history of this small country. A history - as they show - full of extremes, marked by intense class conflicts, sometimes delayed, sometimes anticipatory (like the Carnation Revolution), always profoundly intertwined with the social and political events of Europe, Africa and the whole world'
