Abstract

This text reviews the posthumous work From Sea-Bathing to Beach-Going: A Social History of The Beach in Rio de Janeiro, authored by Bert J. Barickman and edited by Hendrik Kraay and Bryan McCann. It gives an overview the book's chapters content, as well as its contributions to the history of Rio de Janeiro, the beach, the city and urban development, tourism and, of course, leisure. To this end, it associates the book and its discussions with historical works on some of these subjects. Likewise, it explores how much the author's historical approach is a relevant contribution to the history of leisure.
