Pastinha - the boy who became a capoeira master
by José de Jesus Barreto, Cau Gomez
Description
Once upon a time there was a smart little biracial kid born in the Pelourinho district of Salvador, Bahia. After playing and fighting in the street, he became the greatest of all Capoeira Angola masters in Bahia. The name of this boy became a legend around the world, but the story of Mestre Pastinha is real and is recounted blow-by-blow in this book in words and pictures.
