Summary "Journal of a Voyage to Brazil" by Maria Graham is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work chronicles the author's travels and observations during her time in Brazil from 1821 to 1823, providing insights into both the personal and political landscape of the country during a pivotal moment in its history. The narrative covers not only her personal experiences but also significant public events leading up to Brazil's struggle for independence from Portugal.

In the preface, she discusses the importance of sharing her observations, emphasizing her desire for candor despite the personal cost. Graham introduces the historical context of Brazil, touching on the significant political changes occurring in the country and the impact of the return of the Portuguese royal family to Lisbon.
