Books About Brazil

Brazil, the largest country in South America, is also the most vibrant. From soccer to samba, breathtaking beaches to dense jungles, Brazil has it all. In the east lies Salvador, the country’s pulsating, African heart. In the west, the Pantanal is the best place to view wildlife in South America. In the north, the Analvilhanas Islands, on the world’s greatest river, offer that exhilarating “jungle lodge” experience. In the south, Ilha do Mel is a laidback beach island on the edge of the wilderness. In between are towns and cities with festivals galore. This sixth edition of Footprint’s popular Brazil guide is a goldmine of up-to-date information for independent travelers.
