Viriato Henriques was a direct descendent of the first King of Portugal, Alfonse Henriques of the 12th century. As a Portuguese nobleman Viriato lived a life of privilege. But he decided he wanted to dance, travel the world, and introduce all kinds of dancing everywhere he went. He gave up all of his wealth and possibilities so he could pursue his dream, which was to eventually arrive in New York City and dance there. When he got to the States, now calling himself Bill Henriques, he decided to write down the adventures of his life so far, from his early high position to his current status as a poor dancer waiting for his next job, so that one day he would read them and remember it all. These random scribblings were kept in a metal box and never read by anyone else until one fateful day. This book is the result of the first time someone finally read all that was in that box...

"No tempo do grande épico ainda se não tinha perdido o conhecimento da relação de continuidade histórica entre Portugal e a antiga Lusitânia, mais vasta e por isso mais violentamente retalhada pela administrarão imperial romana. Esse conhecimento, embora confundido com as lendas sincréticas dos falsos cronicões, influiu na consciência do nosso individualismo étnico e nacional. O esforço de desnacionalização de Portugal pela política da unificação ibérica, veio até reflectir-se nos próprios historiadores pátrios, levando-os a considerar Portugal uma formação recente, adventícia, sem individualidade, e a Lusitânia quase como uma ficção banal dos eruditos da Renascença! Mas o carácter persistente do tipo português, a resistência tenaz contra todos os conflitos da natureza e pressões da vida, que tanto o distingue entre os povos modernos, é a prova manifesta da raça lusitana como a descreveram os geógrafos gregos e romanos. Nas lutas pela liberdade territorial a Lusitânia deixou nos historiadores greco-latinos o eco da sua resistência indomável, sobretudo no ciclo das guerras viriatinas, que se reacenderam ainda sob o comando de Sertório." Texto segundo o Novo Acordo Ortográfico.

In the middle years of the second century BC, Rome was engaged in the conquest and pacification of what is now Spain and Portugal. They met with determined resistance from several tribes but nobody defied them with more determination and skill than Viriathus. Apparently of humble birth, he emerged as a leader after the treacherous massacre of the existing tribal chieftains and soon proved himself a gifted and audacious commander. Relying on hit and run guerrilla tactics, he inflicted repeated humiliating reverses upon the theoretically superior Roman forces, uniting a number of tribes in resistance to the invader and stalling their efforts at conquest and pacification for eight years. Still unbeaten in the field, he was only overcome when the Romans resorted to bribing some of his own men to assassinate him (though they reneged on the agreed payment, claiming they did not reward traitors!). Though renowned in his day Viriathus has been neglected by modern historians, a travesty that Luis Silva puts right in this thoroughly researched and accessible account. Portuguese by birth, the author draws on Portuguese research and perspectives that will be refreshing to English-language scholars and his own military experience also informs his analysis of events. What emerges is a stirring account of defiance, heroic resistance against the odds and, ultimately, treachery and tragedy.
