A welcome volume for the general public and specialists alike."Todd Diacon, Kent State University"An important and lucid exploration of history, memory, and politics, Wolfe's fast-paced and engaging account shows how aspirations bolstered and ideology undermined Brazil's two-hundred-year struggle to create a multicultural democracy."Heather Cox Richardson, Boston College"Joel Wolfe's excellent short history of Brazil with an emphasis on the past century is a wonderful introduction for anyone interested in this fascinating country."Marshall C. Eakin, Vanderbilt University
