About this book

History of a Voyage to the Land of Brazil (Latin American Literature and Culture) (Volume 6) by Whatley, Janet. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780520082748.

When the famous anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss arrived in Rio de Janeiro, he had one book in his pocket: Jean de Lérys History of a Voyage to the Land of Brazil. Léry had undertaken his fascinating and arduous voyage in 1556, as a youthful member of the first Protestant mission to the New World. Janet Whatley presents the first complete English translation of one of the most vivid early European accounts of life in the New World.
