Brazil - Rough Guide Brazil - Rough Guide


Brazil sets hearts beating. As large as the USA without Alaska, as far from Boa Vista to Rio Grande as from New York to LA (with the Amazon rainforest in between), this is one exceptionally big, and extreme, country. It's also now firmly on the tourism map, even though normally associated with the Rio carnival and Amazon eco-tourism. The Rough Guide to Brazil is sure-footed in its treatment of rural poverty and space-age modernity; national parks for people (the Yanomami for example) and Rio's samba schools; race, music, ecology and history. Whether you're on a beach-based package holiday or a river expedition, this is a guide you need.
