Blore S., De Vries A. Frommer's Brazil

5th Edition. Hoboken, New Jersey: Wiley Publishing, Inc., 2010. – 516 p.There’s a joke Brazilians like to tell: When the world was created, one of the archangels peered over God’s shoulder at the work in progress and couldn’t help noticing that one country had been especially favored. ''You’ve given everything to Brazil,'' the archangel said. ''It has the longest beaches, the largest river, the biggest forest, the best soil. The weather’s always warm and sunny, with no floods, hurricanes, or natural disasters at all. Don’t you think that’s a little unfair?'' ''Ah,'' God replied, ''just wait until you see the people I’m putting there.''
