by Manuel Ant¿nio de Almeida (Author)
First published in 1854, this delightful novel of urban manners follows a ne'er-do-well militial sergeant through his romantic liaisons and frequent scrapes with the law. Memoirs of a Militia Sergeant was long considered an early picaresque romance that emphasized the peculiarly roguish element in the Brazilian character.
