Santa Maria: My Crusade for Portugal is a historical account written by Henrique Galvao. The book tells the story of Galvao's journey aboard the Santa Maria, a Portuguese ocean liner that was hijacked by him and a group of Portuguese exiles in 1961. Galvao and his companions were protesting the dictatorship of Antonio Salazar and seeking to draw attention to the plight of the Portuguese people under his regime. The hijacking of the Santa Maria was a bold and daring act of political activism that captured the attention of the world. Galvao's account of the hijacking and its aftermath provides a fascinating insight into the struggle for democracy in Portugal during the mid-20th century. The book is a compelling read for anyone interested in the history of Portugal, political activism, and the fight for human rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
