The book explores the centrality of slavery to every aspect of life in nineteenth century Rio and its long legacy through to the current day, illuminating both the city's grinding inequality and violence, as well as its triumphant cultural expressions. Rio de Janeiro is a unique and fascinating city, and through ten pivotal moments, McCann reveals its boundless creativity and contradictions, and shows how it has been continually remade by newcomers, strivers, and tricksters.

Hidden in the dense brush and around oxbow lakes of the Rio Grande Valley wait sinister secrets, unnerving vestiges of the past, and wraiths of those claimed by the winding river. The spirit of a murdered student in Brownsville paces the locker room where she met her end. Tortured souls of patients lost in the Harlingen Insane Asylum refuse to be forgotten. Guests at the LaBorde Hotel in Rio Grande City report visions of the Red Lady, who was spurned by the soldier she loved and driven to suicide.

Based on research in five languages and in archives across the globe, Habsburgs on the Rio Grande fundamentally revises narratives of global history. Far more than a footnote, the Second Mexican Empire was at the center of world-historic great-power struggles—a point of inflection in a contest for supremacy that set the terms of twentieth-century rivalry.

Historian Miguel Ángel González-Quiroga draws on national archives, letters, consular records, periodicals, and a host of other sources to give voice to borderlanders' perspectives as he weaves their many, varied stories into one sweeping narrative. The tale he tells is one of economic connections and territorial disputes, of refugees and bounty hunters, speculation and stake holding, smuggling and theft, and other activities in which economic considerations often carried more weight than racial prejudice.

Num de seus trabalhos mais ambiciosos e impressionantes, Ruy Castro levanta uma história que nunca tinha sido contada: a dos espiões, refugiados, quintas-colunas, diplomatas e artistas na capital federal do Brasil durante a Segunda Guerra. Foi um período marcado por reviravoltas, segredos e tramas que mudaram a vida dos brasileiros para sempre. Muito antes de o Brasil declarar guerra ao Eixo em 1942, a Segunda Guerra já estava entre nós.

At 15, Victor Rios found himself a human target - flat on his ass amid a hail of shotgun fire, desperate for money and a place on the street. Faced with the choice of escalating a drug turf war or eking out a living elsewhere, he turned to a teacher, who mentored him and helped him find a job at an auto shop. That job would alter the course of his whole life - putting him on the road to college and eventually a PhD.

Uma cidade em convulsão na imprensa, na literatura, na música popular, na ópera, no teatro, nas artes plásticas, no cinema, na caricatura, na praia, na ciência, na arquitetura, no futebol, na luta das mulheres, nos costumes, no sexo e nas drogas. Se o Brasil dos anos 20 ainda engatinhava rumo à modernização, o Rio de Janeiro tinha vida própria e já era sinônimo de arrojo e vanguarda. É essa capital fervilhante o cenário e a protagonista do novo livro de Ruy Castro.

Em 15 de janeiro de 2009, o mundo testemunhou um pouso de emergência notável quando o comandante Chesley Sullenberger, um piloto com mais de vinte mil horas de voo, habilidosamente deslizou o avião da US Airways sobre o rio Hudson, em Manhattan, salvando todas as 155 vidas a bordo. Poucos minutos depois de decolar do aeroporto LaGuardia, o voo 1549 ganhava altitude quando a fuselagem estremeceu. Ao colidir com um bando de pássaros, o avião perdeu ambos os motores. O sangue-frio do piloto não apenas evitou uma enorme tragédia, mas o transformou em herói.
