Description
Palavras Do Vovô/ Grandpa’s Words
From the Forward, by Richard L. Teixeira, M.D.
“This autobiography in Portuguese poetry was written by my great-grandfather Manuel Moreira Alves in 1907.
When Manuel’s son, my grandfather Jose Moreira Alves immigrated to America in 1920, he brought his father’s manuscripts with him and preserved them.
I am publishing these manuscripts with English translations not only for the fascinating life story of an ancestor but also for the beauty of the Portuguese verse.”
