Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Morgan Expeditions, '70-'71
The upper town of monte-alegre is composed of some fifty, for the most part shabby, tumble-down houses and vendas, together with a handsome new church and a curious, little, old, barn-like chapel, surrounding an immense, shadeless, sandy, Sahara of a square. The inhabitants are principally of Indian descent, but among the white families there are a few of education and refinement. The town has been ruined by the rubber trade, and is fast going to decay. The people are chie?y engaged in grazing, fishing and trade.
