Have you ever wondered how to travel with your favorite pet in a huge tropical country where footloose foreigners are suspect? Budding author Ben Batchelder abandons a cozy corporate life and, instead of returning to the U.S., moves deep into the interior of Brazil. Here he drives his two-wheel drive station wagon into the Amazon, on the notoriously dangerous Belem-Brasilia highway, and back along Brazil's endless Atlantic Coast, on roads few if any Brazilians brave. Hence the need for such a ferocious breed as Labrador: for protection. Along the way, humorous encounters with countless locals help him to plumb Brazilian culture and history, in so many aspects the flip-side of the American experience, and reveal how he fell in love with Brazil's beguiling warmth in the first place - along with black Labs.
