From Dorothy Weil, author of The River Home

“Ellen Geld’s account of farming in Brazil takes the reader to a rugged and beautiful place. As she tells of her family’s adventures, the author also looks beyond at the country—the view from the fazenda—and describes with gusto Brazil’s teeming rivers, all-but-impenetrable forests, its fields and farms, its myriad exotic creatures, its great variety of plants, foods and flowers, and its unique stalwart people.”
