I am looking for English language books on Portugals exploration and colonization. Something a bit like Parry's "The Spanish Seaborne Empire" but for Portugal's possessions in Brazil, Africa, the Indian Ocean, etc. Any suggestions?

Google the same; or use  any search engine you like. There are dozens.
