Rare first edition of this controversial work by António Ménici Malheiro (1882–1963), a writer and committed republican from Braga, devoted to the political and social history of the city from its origins to the early twentieth century.

Augusto Vieira da Silva 
REF.36856
Year 1898
1stEdition

Lisbon; Typographia do Commercio; In-4.º of 52 pages and one folding map; Illustrated; Paperback.

Historical and descriptive study of São Jorge Castle by Augusto Vieira da Silva (1869–1951), a military engineer and distinguished researcher into the history and topography of Lisbon. Originally published in the «Revista de Engenharia Militar», this work represents one of the author's early contributions to the systematic study of the monuments and urban development of the Portuguese capital.

The work examines the castle's history, from its origins and successive transformations to its use as a military fortification, considering its architectural structure, walls, towers and other features of the monument. Of particular interest to military history, archaeology and Lisbon studies, it reflects the documentary rigour and attention to historical topography that would characterise Augusto Vieira da Silva's later research.

The edition includes a folding map, of particular interest for understanding the layout and spatial organisation of the fortified complex.

Copy with minor losses of paper to the original wrappers, the text block in good condition. Bears an ownership bookplate and signature.
