"Apontamentos sobre a via de communicação do rio Madeira" by Antonio Pereira Rebouças is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the potential development and improvement of communication routes along the Madeira River, emphasizing the importance of navigation and trade between Brazil and Bolivia. It outlines various historical efforts and treaties relating to this topic, reflecting on the socioeconomic implications of enhanced connectivity for both nations. The opening of this treatise introduces the author’s initial endeavors in 1868 while in Santiago, Chile, to study the feasibility of a road linking lower and upper Madeira through steam navigation. Rebouças notes the historical barriers caused by waterfalls obstructing the river's course and discusses recent diplomatic advances that raised hopes for improved commercial exchange. He recounts how previous attempts to navigate the region have cemented the idea that efficient transportation through Madeira is vital for Bolivia's economic development, aiming to attract interest and investment in the proposed communication routes.
