Those interested in Brazil and revolution should gain strong background by visiting these websites: a.. Os Sertões de Euclides da Cunha (obra completa): http://www.cce.ufsc.br/~nupill/literatura/sertoes.html b.. História de Canudos http://www.portfolium.com.br/artigo.htm c.. Mapa de Canudos http://www.portfolium.com.br/mapa.htm d.. Canudos - 100 anos (Jornal Estado de São Paulo)http://www.estado.com.br/edicao/especial/canudos/can055.html They are in Portuguese, all of them are related to the story of Antônio Conselheiro and the communist-religious rebellion in the Brazilian North East known as the Canudos rebellion. It was wonderfully depicted by a journalist who worked on the enemy side, Euclides da Cunha. But Da Cunha made a very honest, thus very positive in the end, report of the rebels. Mario Vargas Llosa's _War of the end of the world_ can also be read with profit. Although a novel, it is extremely true to history and is marvelously well written even though Vargas Llosa is a reactionary of the worst kind.
