Brazilian Sketches is a collection of essays written by T. B. Ray, an American author who traveled extensively throughout Brazil in the late 19th century. The book is a vivid and detailed account of Ray's experiences in Brazil, covering a wide range of topics including the country's culture, history, geography, economy, and politics. Ray's writing style is engaging and informative, providing readers with a unique perspective on Brazil and its people. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Brazilian history and culture, as well as for those who enjoy travel writing and exploration literature. Overall, Brazilian Sketches is a fascinating and insightful look at one of the most dynamic and diverse countries in the world.When his wrath had cooled down somewhat he began to recall many things Marciano had told him about the Bible, and as he looked upon his many expensive idols set here and there in niches about his home, he said to himself: Well, did Marciano say these images do nothing. They neither draw water, cut wood nor pick coffee. They do not teach school, they do not protect our home, for there is one covered with soot. There is another the rats have gnawed, and recently another fell and was broken. How powerless they are.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
