Slavery and the Demographic and Economic History of Minas Gerais, Brazil, 1720–1888 - Cambridge Latin American Studies
Bergad, Laird W. (Lehman College, City University of New York)

Its ability to diversify economically as well as its growth through natural reproduction, rather than through importation via the trans-atlantic slave trade indicate the unique character of this slave community.
