July 2nd - A Story of LibertyThis is a work of fiction based on the facts that occurred during numerous events of the liberation movement in Bahia. The fictional characters that appear here represent the thousands of anonymous heroes and heroines who were as important and decisive for the Brazilian victory as those who had their names highlighted and perpetuated in the beautiful history of determinationand will of the Bahian people. It is also a tribute to those who gave up their prominent position to fund and fight alongside men considered inferior for the common good. Let every reader understand that the liberation process came not only from the cry of a sovereign, but from the blood, sweat and struggle of many good Brazilian citizens. That the men who wrote this story were not perfect, but preferred to overlook their imperfections so that this continental nation could become free and today could walk under the motto: Order and Progress.
