A History of Brazil

Calogeras’s book occupies a unique place among the histories of Brazil. Comprising the story of Brazil from its discovery in 1498 up to 1926, it describes events, institutions, literature, personalities, the colonial epoch, the era of independence, and the nationalistic period. Martin’s translation is an easily readable volume that gives an excellent idea of the evolution of the people of Brazil into a nation.Originally published in 1933.A UNC Press Enduring Edition -- UNC Press Enduring Editions use the latest in digital technology to make available again books from our distinguished backlist that were previously out of print.
