| Summary: | In Santos Dumont at the Falls, Micael Alvino da Silva takes us back to the final decades of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century to understand what was happening in the world and at the tri-border region when Alberto Santos Dumont visited the Iguazu Falls in 1916. With engaging prose, the book is organized into short essays, and its chapters are linked in a way that each one highlights an aspect of the famous aviator's journey, always establishing connections with the land of Naipi.
Nearly one hundred years after the aviator’s death, Santos Dumont’s unusual visit to the Falls finally becomes the subject of a book. It is with great joy that EDUNILA, in partnership with the 100 Fronteiras Institute and with the support of Itaipu Binacional and the Itaipu Iguaçu Fund, presents this story to the public through the words of Micael Alvino da Silva. |
