Outlaws of the Sertão
Writings of Os Cangaceiros Vol. II
Translated by Wolfi Landstreicher

Publication of the second volume of the writings of Os Cangaceiros by Eberhardt Press has been cancelled. The book was tentatively titled Millenarian Rebels during production, and the final working title was Outlaws of the Sertão. In this book, members of the French revolutionary group Os Cangaceiros write about their fierce Brazilian namesakes, as well as the millenarian groups of the dispossessed and the urban poor who joined together in movements of social reform at the dawn of the 20th century, only to find themselves in an apocalyptic struggle with the Brazilian state.
