Abstract
The epilogue offers a first-person travelogue of the author's research in the Brazilian interior, and on what the memory sites symbolize for how the Prestes Column is remembered in the present day. Rather than follow directly in the column's path, the author charted an itinerary that linked a dozen monuments, tombstones, and museums that memorialized different aspects of the Prestes Column's march across the interior. The memory sites were physical proof of the themes discussed throughout this book, including the power dynamics of how local spaces in the interior could garner attention from wider audiences. Memory sites were a way to link my observations in the present with an understanding of how different communities have sought to commemorate their place in history.
