E-mail this pageE-mail this page Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

A complicated, rewarding portrait, and the first biography of the Portuguese prince in 100 years. In this revisionist history Russell depicts a Prince Henry who is not, as legend would have it, a visionary modernist, but rather a man of the Renaissance, as subject to prejudice, superstition and ego as any prince of his era.  (PGL25, $21.00)
