Product Description
In 1993, Fernando Henrique Cardoso was appointed the new Finance Minister of Brazil–a country that had had seven different currencies in the previous eight years to cope with inflation that had run at 3000 percent a year. The position was a political death sentence. But by 1995, he had become President of the Federative Republic of Brazil.

Brazil is a land of sophisticated music and brutal golddigging, of the next global superpower and the last old-time coffee plantations. It is gloriously ungovernable, irrepressible and attractive. This is Cardoso’s story and love song to his family, friends, and country.
