Dear Varig Brazilian Airways

   
I will be travelling with your airline to Brazil in September, and am wondering if I could impose on your good nature a little?

The Australian national airline Qantas recently supplied me with a copy of 'Australia - A Traveller's Guide'. I found this publication, despite a distinct lack of information on dingoes eating babies, to be quite invaluable. As Brazil's national airline, are Varig in a position to furnish me with a similar publication covering Brazil?

I would be particularly interested in any guide which carries information on the Amazon Rain Forests. Anything you have on this area would be most welcome, especially data on the indigenous Indian population, as I gather that the Brazilian authorities turn a blind eye to the shooting of these rain forest dwellers. Not of course that I intend shooting an Indian; but if while I am out hunting wild game in the Amazon jungle I accidentally bag an Indian by mistake it is comforting to know that the authorities wouldn't be too tiresome about it. And then again I won't make any secret of the fact that a stuffed Indian's head over my sitting room mantelpiece would make a rather interesting talking point.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely

T Ravenscroft (Mr)
