| 1. |  | Rebellion in the Backlands (Phoenix Books) from University Of Chicago Press Price: $32.85 Customer Review:  In addition to the reviews previously posted, my advice to the non-intellectual reader is to first read Errol Lincoln Uys's Brazil, which is an easy to read historical Michener-type novel that will frame the events of the eye witness account of the "rebellion" of Canudos documented in d Cunda's... |

| 3. |  | The Brazil Reader: History, Culture, Politics (Latin American Readers) from Duke University Press Customer Review:  An excellent collection of primary sources from Brazilian history. It strangely skips entire decades and periods which is its only shortcoming. |

| 4. |  | The Life and Death of Carolina Maria de Jesus (Dialogos (Albuquerque, New Mexico).) from University of New Mexico Press Price: $21.95 Customer Review: This is a marvelous study not only of a poignant African-Brazilian woman persecuted for daring to state her beliefs, but one that reveals the different ways that American (Levine) and Brazilian (Meihy) scholars perceive the problems of race in society. A must read for anyone interested in Latin... |

| 5. |  | Child Of The Dark: The Diary Of Carolina Maria De Jesus from Signet Classics Price: $6.95 Customer Review:  Not the best book about Brazil in general, probably a well not the best book about Favelas (though it does have a lot of stark, references about the social and corrupt political institutions bringing down the country). For starters the writer or author Carolina Maria De Jesus is a very... |

| 7. |  | The Atlantic Slave Trade (New Approaches to the Americas) from Cambridge University Press Price: $22.49 Customer Review: The Atlantic Slave Trade is an important part of history of several nations: great part of Africa of course, the nations in America who were immmersed in this trade as buyers and those European countries who had control of the trade to its colonies.

| 10. |  | Ambivalent Conquests: Maya and Spaniard in Yucatan, 1517-1570 (Cambridge Latin American Studies) from Cambridge University Press Price: $24.29 Customer Review: This is really the first book I read in depth on the subject of the Maya. I have read substantial parts of other books, but this author's approach is remarkable in that she is able to delineate at all times between the religious and the historical which can be very much intertwined during this... |
