About this Item

299 pp. First edition. Bound in 3/4 leather; gilt stamped spine; marble covers; marble endpapers; top edge gilt. Binding tight; boards clean; no dust jacket; endpapers with label loss; internally fine. Quoting the author: "Happy memories of sojourn and peregrination,?themselves a romance, woven into form, set up in type and printed by myself during my leisure hours, so that a few of my friends may share them with me, if they so desire." Quoting the preface: Upon the traveller in modern Brazil one impression must inevitable be made by the scenes and sounds which attract his attention. Sixteen hours on the train and a day or two on horseback will transport him from the splendid city of S�o Paulo to the haunts of the untamed, naked savage with his blowpipe and poisoned arrows. The recent enormous extension of coffee-planting is the cause of this unusual and abnormal contrast of conditions. While the Brazilian is generally of a mild and genial disposition, the border land has produced and is still producing many desperadoes who execute justice and injustice at their own sweet will and exercise the sway of feudal lords over wide stretches of country. Size: 20 x 15 cm. 0.0.
