Important travel diary with detailed accounts of the events of the visit that Francisco Xavier Ribeiro de Sampaio made to the Captaincy of Rio Negro, of which he was Ouvidor and Intendente. The Captaincy of Rio Negro was created on March 3, 1755 at the suggestion of Francisco Xavier de Mendonça Furtado, brother of the Marquis of Pombal, with the aim of clearly defining the border demarcation, since the territories of Rio Negro belonged to the Spanish by the Treaty of Tordesillas, but had been invaded by Portuguese-Brazilians. Rare.
