Estórias por quem estudou muito História
Desde garoto, em Bom Jesus, tenho paixão por leitura. Lia jornais e livros de História emprestados. A partir dos 13 anos de idade, ao me mudar para Gravataí, passei a viajar nos livros de História, Ciência Política e Literatura.

And throughout, they share dozens of personal stories of people in the movement--stories filled with tremendous courage, personal sacrifice, faith, humor, drama, and determination.
The Brazilian-American Alliance, 1937-1945
Getúlio Dornelles Vargas established his dictatorship in Brazil in 1937, and from 1938 through 1940 American diplomats and military planners were preoccupied with the possibility that Brazil might ally herself with Nazi Germany. Such an alliance would have made fortress America vulnerable and closed the South Atlantic to Allied shipping. Fortunately for America, Brazil eventually joined the Allies and American engineers turned Northeast Brazil into a vast springboard for supplies for the war fronts. Frank D. McCann has used previously inaccessible Brazilian archival material to discuss the events during the Vargas regime which brought about a close alliance between Brazil and the United Sta...
