Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the little-known events that unfolded in 18th century Brazil as Portugal sought to exploit the gold mines of the Cariris region. Drawing from previously unpublished historic documents, the author reconstructs the team of explorers dispatched into the Cariris and the efforts of Jerà nimo Mendes de Paz, his companions, and others who aided him in fulfilling his mission. Set against a backdrop of heated competition with Spain, the book explores the challenges, hopes, and dreams of those involved. The expedition's successes and failures, including the mistrust and opposition faced by Paz, are chronicled alongside the impact of mining on the region's indigenous population. The narrative also sheds light on the connections between the events in the Cariris and developments elsewhere in Brazil, revealing the interconnectedness of the Portuguese empire during this period. The book's insights into the motivations, struggles, and experiences of those involved offer a valuable perspective on the history of Brazil and the global race for resources. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
