Authorized Images: Iberian Duo- Miguel de Cervantes, Luis de Camões
Though the Spanish author Cervantes is much more celebrated internationally than his Portuguese counterpart Luid de Camões, it is an oddity of postcard history that the latter was feted far more in his country than the creator of Don Quixote was in his. Nonetheless, this book gives today's reader a comprehensive look at the postcards related to both authors which were available during the Golden Age of the medium: 1890 to 1930. Easily accessible text describes the key moments in the lives of each writer, and full captions clarify the contents of the images.
