Brazilian Sketches is a collection of travel essays written by T. B. Ray, an American journalist who traveled extensively throughout Brazil in the late 19th century. The book provides a vivid and detailed account of Ray's experiences in Brazil, including his encounters with various people, cultures, and landscapes. Ray describes the country's natural beauty, from the Amazon rainforest to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro, as well as its vibrant cities, such as S�����o Paulo and Salvador. He also explores the country's history, politics, and economy, offering insights into the challenges and opportunities facing Brazil at the time. Overall, Brazilian Sketches is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Brazil's rich culture and history.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.
