"Vassouras remains the single best regional study of Brazil, and a classic analysis of Brazilian slavery and of the society and economies it engendered. It is written with conviction, accuracy, and a control of detail which is always used to address central historical problems. It is among the best works of scholarship on Latin America of the last half century, and it has the great quality of being written in a style that captures the interest of general readers or undergraduates as well as scholars."--Stuart Schwartz, University of MinnesotaStein, Stanley J. is the author of 'Vassouras A Brazilian Coffee County, 1850-1900', published 1986 under ISBN 9780691022369 and ISBN 0691022364.
