Description

Brazil is a vast, complex country with great potential but an uneven history. This concise one-volume history introduces readers to the history of Brazil from its origins. It emphasizes current affairs, including Brazil's return to democracy after more than two decades of military rule, and the economic consequences of adopting free-market policies as part of the creation of the global marketplace. "The History of Brazil" unfolds in narrative chronological chapters beginning with the Portuguese conquest and continues up to the beginning of the 21st century. Short biographical sketches of 40 prominent Brazilians, a glossary of Portuguese terms and a bibliographical essay add reference value to this work.

Author Biography:
