    Brazil’s industrial foundations were shaped by its colonial past, rich natural resources, and evolving economic policies. The country’s transition from an agrarian economy to an industrial powerhouse was a long and complex process influenced by global trade dynamics, government intervention, and social changes. Understanding these foundations provides insight into the rise and fall of Brazil’s economic giants. 
    The origins of Brazil’s economy date back to the colonial period under Portuguese rule. Initially, the country’s economic activities were centered around agriculture, particularly the production of sugarcane, which became the backbone of Brazil’s early commerce. The Portuguese established large sugar plantations, or engenhos, along the northeastern coast, relying heavily on enslaved labor from Africa. This agricultural-based economy set the stage for Brazil’s role as a key exporter of raw materials, a trend that would persist for centuries. As global demand for sugar declined in the 17th and 18th centuries, Brazil’s economy diversified into gold mining, particularly in the state of Minas Gerais. The discovery of gold and diamonds attracted European settlers and boosted trade, but much of the wealth was extracted by the Portuguese crown, limiting local reinvestment. The reliance on commodity exports, without substantial industrial development, created a pattern that continued into modern times. 
    Brazil’s shift toward industrialization began in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, spurred by the decline of slavery, urbanization, and increasing foreign investment. The abolition of slavery in 1888 led to significant demographic changes, with many freed individuals moving to urban centers in search of work. Around the same time, European immigrants arrived in large numbers, bringing skills that contributed to Brazil’s growing workforce. The coffee boom of the late 19th century played a crucial role in financing Brazil’s early industries.

    The harrowing true story of the abuses two boys suffered at a Florida reform school and how they came together fifty years later to confront their attackers. 
     
    “[The Boys of the Dark] reads seamlessly… . . . A worthy exploration of a regrettably long-lasting true-crime nightmare.” —Kirkus Reviews 
     
    Michael O’McCarthy and Robert W. Straley were teens when they were termed “incorrigible youth” by authorities and ordered to attend the Florida School for Boys. They discovered in Marianna, the “City of Southern Charm,” an immaculately groomed campus that looked more like an idyllic university than a reform school. But hidden behind the gates of the Florida School for Boys was a hell unlike any they could have imagined. The school’s guards and administrators acted as their jailers and tormentors. The boys allegedly bore witness to assault, rape, and possibly even murder. 
     
    For fifty years, both men—and countless others like them—carried their torment in silence. But a series of unlikely events brought O’McCarthy, now a successful rights activist, and Straley together, and they became determined to expose the Florida School for Boys for what they believed it to be: a youth prison with a century-long history of abuse. They embarked upon a campaign that would change their lives and inspire others. 
     
    Robin Gaby Fisher, a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and author of the New York Times–bestselling After the Fire, collaborates with Straley and O’McCarthy to offer a riveting account of their harrowing ordeal. The book goes beyond the story of the two men to expose the truth about a century-old institution and a town that adopted a Nuremberg-like code of secrecy and a government that failed to address its own wrongdoing. What emerges is a tale of strength, resolve, and vindication in the face of the kinds of terror few can imagine. 
     
    “Haunting and disturbing. The voices of the victims will forever touch my heart. To turn a deaf ear to this type of injustice is to give permission for it to continue. As a people, as a society, we should be outraged.” —Jennifer Thompson, coauthor of Picking Cotton 
     
    “This deeply moving story is highly recommended to readers of heart-wrenching memoirs, 20th-century American studies, or true crime.” —Library Journal
