This book inspired by the acclaimed bilingual documentary "Portuguese in California" showcases the Portuguese-American community living in California; offering the reader a comprehensive historical overview of this unique and vibrant, but often invisible ethnic group. The "Portuguese In" Saga is likely to become both a historical record and a reference for generations to come.?In the early 16th century when first Europeans set foot in the golden state, among the first were the Portuguese. Three centuries later, immigrants from Azores, Madeira and mainland Portugal continued to brave the oceans for months in search of a better life in this new world. Masters of the sea, Portuguese whalers, fisherman and farmers became one of the most entrepreneurial successful ethnic groups in California. This book goes beyond the Portuguese in California documentary and provides insight into the history and every-day lives of these courageous immigrants, as well as their descendants that now account for more than one million spread throughout the state, from San Diego, Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay Area, the San Joaquin Valley to the state Capitol. Their inspirational stories captured between the covers of this book are nothing short of a tribute to their legacy to California, their families and communities, and to their motherland, be it the Azores, Madeira, continental Portugal or any of the former Portuguese colonies from where they hailed.
