A history of the society and economy of Sao Paulo from its origins to the introduction of coffee in the mid-19th century.
"There is not one thing wrong with this book. Luna and Klein have done impressive research in previously unused sources. They present their findings in clear, unpretentious prose....All in all, Slavery and the Economy of São Paulo is a model monograph, nothing less than we have come to expect from its distinguished authors."EH.Net
