First published in 1969 Brazil: Land Without Limits offers its
readers the full flavour of this enchanting land that is Brazil.
Malcolm Slesser travelled through Brazil during a year as a
lecturer at the University of Rio de Janeiro and brings his
sympathetic understanding and sense of humor to describe Brazil to
its readers. Brazil is a land of contrasts, of the ancient and the
modern, the rich and the poor. From the dense tropical jungles of
the Matto Grosso to Brasilia, the modern capital, and the beach of
Copacabana, enjoyed by all races and colours, the scene is
everchanging. To a European like Malcolm Slesser the country offers
an enormous challenge. It exasperates, frustrates, enchants, and
captivates. But Brazil is much more than an exotic tourist
attraction. Its abundant natural resources make it a country to be
reckoned with on a world scale. Author argues that it is ready to
exploit its potential, to make it a country of limitless potential
as limitless as the land itself. This fascinating account of Brazil
will be interesting for general readers and for students of Latin
American studies.
