Lusitanian Sketches of the Pen and Pencil, William H. G. Kingston (1844)

171A6273-AFAD-40CA-8293-B3F83906758C-256

Published in two volumes, this is a fantastic old book for anyone interested in Portugal or the Port trade, giving an account of the author’s tours of the north of the country over a two year period, including visits to the Douro and the Port Shippers’ lodges of Vila Nova de Gaia.

The original volumes are extremely rare but facsimile editions are available.
