History’s Doorstep brings to the public knowledge thirteen Portuguese figures that made a name for themselves between the XIX and XX century. They were personalities with unexpected resources and full of surprises, however, for various reasons they are not remembered today. From Beatriz Ângelo, the first Portuguese woman to vote, to Sousa Martins, who created the Lisbon Zoo, and Roberto Ivens who explored the African Continent, it is important to bring them back to the spotlight and give knowledge to the masses of what they were and why they should belong in History. 13 Lives with exciting accomplishments. 13 Histories with romance and action. 13 Portuguese men and women that stayed at History's Door.
