Brazil- A Biography, written by two of Brazil's leading historians and a bestseller in Brazil itself, is a remarkable attempt to convey the overwhelming diversity and challenges of this huge country from its origins to the 21st century - larger than the contiguous USA and still in some regions not fully mapped. More than any other part of the 'New World' it displayed both the greatest beauty and grandeur and witnessed scenes of the most terrible European ferocity. A superb history of one of the most grand, beautiful and varied countries on Earth, from its origins to today Since Europeans first reached Brazil in 1500 it has been an unfailing source of extraordinary fascination. ![]()
