"O Infante D. Henrique e a arte de navegar dos portugueses" by Vicente M. M. C. Almeida d'Eça is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work centers around Prince Henry the Navigator, highlighting his pivotal role in initiating the Portuguese Age of Discoveries and the advancements in navigation that stemmed from his efforts. Through a detailed examination of the historical context and developments in maritime practices, the book aims to celebrate the legacies associated with Prince Henry. The opening of the text sets the stage for commemorating the centenary of Prince Henry's significant contributions to navigation. It elaborates on the societal and historical backdrop in which he operated, moving from a general overview of his dual roles—both as a royal family member and a key figure in maritime exploration—to a focus on the advancements in navigation that he fostered. D'Eça addresses the complexities involved in early navigation, discussing the limitations and advancements of navigational tools and techniques in the context of exploration, emphasizing the importance of innovative thought as well as practical experience among early navigators.
