O povo judeu construiu uma história singular em Pernambuco; notadamente em Olinda e Recife. Trazidos pelos portugueses como cristãos-novos; durante a colonização; tinham conhecimentos básicos de difÃcil acesso na época; como astronomia; economia e finanças; que contribuÃram para o sucesso da expansão da PenÃnsula Ibérica. Muitos foram perseguidos pela Inquisição.

I gave birth to my second child. a boy born with tufts of bright orange hair all over his head. To say it was a shock is a great understatement. but after getting over that initial shock and the questions I had to answer - the color of our milkmans hair. for instance - the sheer joy of raising an orange-headed baby boy settled in. Trips to the local grocery store where we ran into old Italian ladies who would pat my boys head for "good luck" was just one of the interesting experiences we had as the baby with orange hair grew into the young man with still orange. but slightly darker orange. hair. That boy married a young woman with lots of orange hair in her family and we were all excited to see if their first child would be another redhead. Well. she was. though with dark red curls rather than the straight orange of her father.I found Elizabeth Graebers utterly delightful book. "A Field Guide to Redheads: An Illustrated Celebration". and bought a book for my son and granddaughter and the Kindle version for myself. What a wonderful book it is. too. with Graeberss illustrations of redheads from ancient times to current day. She throws in some facts as well as some recipes for Carrot Soup and Chewy Ginger Snaps (in honor of those two British gingers - Prince Harry and "Ginger Spice"). as well as instructions on how to mix a Rob Roy. in honor of the Scottish outlaw.I dont think you have to either be a redhead or have one as a loved one in order to enjoy Elizabeth Graebers book. But its sure nice to have pictures and facts to reiterate youre not alone in the world. Sometimes being a redhead is a bit lonely in the crowd of blondes and brunettes. but Graebers book will make you feel as special as you are.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Highly recommend.By CustomerElizabeth Graeber knocks it out of the park with this book. The vibrant energy that seems to be a common thread amongst redheads (Graeber included) comes through with gusto!!! Highly recommend.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
