Abstract
THIS is the fourth annual edition of an excellent handbook on Brazil. As usual, it is well and profusely illustrated, the large map of the country and the coloured frontispiece showing the precious stones of Brazil being especially good. The book deals in an interesting manner with the history and geography of Brazil;. but the chapters on the anthropology and ethnography, the geology and palaeontology, the mineralogy, and the agriculture of Brazil will appeal more directly to scientific readers.
