Um Contemporaneo Do Infante D. Henrique, written by Alberto Pimentel and first published in 1898, is a historical account that examines the life of Álvaro Vaz de Almada, a key figure in the 15th century and companion of Infante D. Henrique. The book provides insights into Portugal's Age of Exploration, highlighting the contributions of Almada and other influential characters of the era. Pimentel's narrative aims to commemorate the fifth centenary of D. Henrique's birth while exploring the broader historical context of maritime discoveries and the valorous deeds of Almada, the last Portuguese knight.
