Fifty years after his death, Portugals Salazar remains a controversial and enigmatic figure, whose conservative and authoritarian legacy still divides opinion. Some see him as a reactionary and oppressive figure who kept Portugal backward, while others praise his honesty, patriotism and dedication to duty. Contemporary radicals are wary of his unabashed elitism and skepticism about social progress, but many conservatives give credit to his persistent warnings about the threats to Western civilization from runaway materialism and endless experimentation.For a dictator, Salazars end was anticlimactica domestic accident. But during his nearly four decades in power, he survived less through reliance on force and more through guile and charm. This probing biography charts the highs and lows of Salazars rule, from rescuing Portugals finances and keeping his strategicallyplaced nation out of World War II to maintaining a police state while resisting the winds of change in Africa. It explores Salazars longrunning suspicion of and conflict with the United States, and how he kept Hitler and Mussolini at arms length while persuading his fellow dictator Franco not to enter the war on their side.Iberia expert Tom Gallagher brings to life a complex leader who deserves to be far better known.
