The book was written in the 1950s and has been translated from Portuguese to English. Many of the names have spelling and symbols that may be unfamiliar to some students. The author uses a strong, highly descriptive vocabulary that is slightly formal and may require some mastery of vocabulary in order to get the full effect of the writing.
