Excerpt: ...high, in lat. 21 14', is on the right bank of the Itababuana River. To the South of Francesa Island the coast diminishes in height, and at 4 miles S.S.W. from it is the mouth of the little River Itapemirim, lat. 20 58' A small sand islet lies before the entrance. At 5 miles East from the mouth Capt. Mouchez found a rocky shoal of 4 fathoms. In from lat. 21 9' to 21 12' there are four or five red cliffs, good land marks. They are called the Barreiros de Siry. It is said that a 5 fathom bank lies 3 miles East of these cliffs. About 7 miles S.S.W. from the islets Piuma, and at nearly 5 miles from shore, is a sand-bank of 4 fathoms, with 9 and 10 fathoms on each side of it; but shoaling gradually toward the land. Its length has been estimated at 1J mile long, N. and S., by one-quarter broad. The water on approaching and receding shoalens and deepens very abruptly. ' Off Point Murubu, in lat. 21 11', there is an appearance of breakers, at 2 miles from land. The river Itabapuana or Cabapuana, lat. 21 19', is wrongly named on the charts the Camapuan. It is only fit for small craft. To the South of the entrance are three low red cliffs, the last on the coast. They terminate 3 miles southward, at Point Retiro. From Point Murubu, in lat. 21 11', to Cape San Thome, in 22 2', the coast is generally a low sandy beach, thickly covered with brushwood, having here and there a stanted tree. The cape, as it is catted, terminates in a low sandy point; the country to a great extent within it is low, drowned, and intersected by many rivers and lakes. The soundings off Point Murubu are very irregular, 13 to 9 and 6 fathoms; the water thence deepens suddenly, with a hard, rocky bottom. S.E. from this part of the coast, 10 or 11 leagues off, there are 20 to 22...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macro-level study of the South Atlantic throughout the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries demonstrating how Brazil’s emergence was built on the longest and most intense slave trade of the modern era. The seventeenth-century missionary and diplomat Father Antônio Vieira once observed that Brazil was nourished, animated, sustained, served, and conserved by the “sad blood” of the “black and unfortunate souls” imported from Angola. In The Trade in the Living, Luiz Felipe de Alencastro demonstrates how the African slave trade was an essential element in the South Atlantic and in the ongoing cohesion of Portuguese America, while at the same time the concrete interests of Brazilian colonists, dependent on Angolan slaves, were often violently asserted in Africa, to ensure men and commodities continued to move back and forth across the Atlantic. In exposing this intricate and complementary relationship between two non-European continents, de Alencastro has fashioned a new and challenging examination of colonial Brazil, one that moves beyond its relationship with Portugal to discover a darker, hidden history. Luiz Felipe de Alencastro is Professor of Economic History at the Sao Paulo School of Economics, Director of the Center for South Atlantic Studies, and Emeritus Professor of History at the University of Paris, Sorbonne.
