Summary

"Michael Palin undertakes another of his celebrated journeys, to a vast country of unimaginable contrasts--Brazil. As much of the world is mired in recession Brazil continues to be an economic powerhouse, as well as host to a staggering variety of peoples, from the hugely wealthy to the abjectly poor, from twenty-first-century technocrats to tribes who continue to live as their ancestors have for centuries.... This is Brazil uncovered. A country seen in all its moods from the mean to the majestic. A country brimming with life and energy and constant surprises."--Front flap of jacket
