Brazil and the River Plate in 1868

Brazil and the River Plate in 1868

This narrative offers a captivating glimpse into the development of Brazil and the River Plate during a transformative period. While it makes no claims to literary grandeur, it provides an engaging account of these regions, which, despite their longstanding commercial ties with England, remain relatively obscure to the British public. Unlike the Old World, where change unfolds gradually, the New World experiences rapid and significant shifts in a matter of just a few years. This remarkable growth in Brazil and the River Plate is not only notable but essential for understanding their evolving identities. (Summary taken from the Preface)
