Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Large octavo with cream self-wraps rebound in gray half-cloth boards; 58 pages; map; illustrations; 27 cm. Scarce. In Portuguese with English abstract. "This work studies life's conditions in the south region of Bahia, where the production of cocoa is predominant. Cocoa farm is the principal cent…er of economical activity in that region. The author studies the geographical environment, rural life, means and ways of transport, and social outlook." --Abstract. A lucid portrait of mid-century cacao estates in Brazil?s northeastern hinterland, tracing the interplay between agricultural practice, landholding culture, and the economic rhythms that bound Bahian planters to global commodity markets. He balances close observation of estate architecture, labor routines, and the delicate horticulture of Theobroma cacao with a wider social history of the region?s patriarchal dynasties, whose fortunes rose and fell with fluctuations in climate, pests, and international demand. The result is a compact but revealing study of how a single crop shaped a landscape, a social order, and a provincial identity poised uneasily between tradition and modernization. | Cacao Farming in Brazil, Food, Agriculture, Sweets, Drugs, Confectrion, Chocolate! Good (+) to very good; wraps and leaves show varying levels of toning/foxing and wear to extremities, but are still readable and unmarked; now protected by boards in very good (+) condition First Edition (presumed; no prior editions or printings cited).
