Naked Tropics: Essays on Empire and Other Rogues (New World in the Atlantic World) Book
In this volume, distinguished historian, Kenneth Maxwell collects some of his most significant writings, following Portugal's imperial journal, from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean and from coast of Asia to the mouth of the Red Sea. Maxwell takes the reader on a lively journey from Macao to the Amazon forests-each piece in the collection is a reflection of the authors driving passions. Major themes he examines are: the peopling of the Americas, the shaking up of continents, the spirit that took a "precocious" Portugal into its imperial venture, the play between Portugal's' extensive imperial reach into Africa and Asia and the Americas, and the rise of Brazil and is tumultuous history.Read More
