Combining the natural beauty of the rainforest, the remote territories of its indigenous peoples, the exhilarating mix of cultures to be found on the city streets and the country's fascinating history, Brazil explores every facet of the background and contemporary culture of this extraordinary nation. In the accompanying text from Lonely Planet travel writer and expert in Brazilian culture, Regis St. Louis, we are authoritatively guided through the earthly paradises of the Amazon and sublime beaches of Bahia, to the Modernist architectural masterpieces of Oscar Niemeyer and the samba rhythms and exotic costumes of carnaval, exploring the unique mix of cultures that make up modern Brazil." --Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Brazil $x Description and travel $v Pictorial works. 650 0 $a Brazil $x Civilization $v Pictorial works. 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01155558 651 7 $a Brazil. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206830 655 7 $a Pictorial works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423874 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214022934.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=35F0EC70026811E89DEE1C1997128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
