The Anona, Anona Cherimolia yields a delicious fruit, and the Prickly-Pear, Opuntia Cactus Indica flourishes exceedingly well, so does the Pomegranate, Punica granatwn. The Fig-marigold of the Cape, Mesembriantemum acinaciforme, is perfectly naturalised, and takes the place of grass on the embankments of the LisbonCascaes railway line. It may be noted, too, that Green Peas, Pisum sativum, can be raised in the open air throughout the year. n.--Negative Proofs, Or The Abskxcf. Of Some Indigenous Plants AS A NEGATIVE CHARACTER Or TEE CLIMATE 1.--Due to climate. a) On the northern side, the Serra of Cintra acts as a barrier, to the extension southwards of the Bastard Plane-tree, or the Sycamore, Acer pseudo-plat anus, and of the Lusitanian Prune, Prunus Lusitanica. The Birch, Betula alba, the Holly, Ilex aquifolium, and the Box, Buxus sempervirens, have their polar limit at Coimbra and Bussaco. b) On the southern side, the Serra of Arrabida forms a barrier to the extension northwards of the Dwarf Palm, Chamcerops humilis, and of the Carob, the Locust-bean or St. John's Bread-tree, Ceratonia siliqua. The dwarf palm, known in Portuguese as the Broom Palm, for brooms, baskets and mats are made of it in Algarve, is the only European representative of the mighty and majestic cocoanut, the royal Figi and other palms of the tropics, and attains its highest latitude in Portugal at the Serra of Arrabida. The last indigenous specimen of this plant, existing in the South of France, died, to the great regret of the French botanists, in April, 1908. 2 1851. It is to be hoped that this very interesting palm will not succumb, at Arrabida, to the indiscreet attention of too zealous herborizers or to the predatory habits of senseless...

Book excerpt: Lisbon's relative proximity to Africa led to a prolonged period of Moorish occupation until 1147. The city enjoyed untold wealth during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries but was devastated by the earthquake in 1755. Portugal's accession to the European Community and Lisbon's subsequent choice both as the European City of Culture (1994) and as the site for the international Expo '98 have brought the city into the European mainstream.

Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES, WALL STREET JOURNAL, AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER “As exciting as any spy novel” (Daily News, New York), The Princess Spy follows the hidden history of an ordinary American girl who became one of the OSS’s most daring World War II spies before marrying into European nobility. Perfect for fans of A Woman of No Importance and Code Girls. When Aline Griffith was born in a quiet suburban New York hamlet, no one had any idea that she would go on to live “a life of glamour and danger that Ingrid Bergman only played at in Notorious” (Time). As the United States enters the Second World War, the young college graduate is desperate to aid in the war effort, but no one is interested in a bright-eyed young woman whose only career experience is modeling clothes. Aline’s life changes when, at a dinner party, she meets a man named Frank Ryan and reveals how desperately she wants to do her part for her country. Within a few weeks, he helps her join the Office of Strategic Services—forerunner of the CIA. With a code name and expert training under her belt, she is sent to Spain to be a coder, but is soon given the additional assignment of infiltrating the upper echelons of society, mingling with high-ranking officials, diplomats, and titled Europeans. Against this glamorous backdrop of galas and dinner parties, she recruits sub-agents and engages in deep-cover espionage. Even after marrying the Count of Romanones, one of the wealthiest men in Spain, Aline secretly continues her covert activities, being given special assignments when abroad that would benefit from her impeccable pedigree and social connections. “[A] meticulously researched, beautifully crafted work of nonfiction that reads like a James Bond thriller” (Bookreporter), The Princess Spy brings to vivid life the dazzling adventures of a spirited American woman who risked everything to serve her country.
