Além de um relato de memórias, Horizonte Distante é um livro didático, repleto de descrições e ilustrações sobre os costumes, apetrechos e até processos de fabricação da época da infância do autor. Era um mundo muito diferente do atual, aquele dos anos 1930 numa fazenda de criação de gado no sul do Paraná, a sessenta quilômetros da cidade mais próxima, sem energia elétrica nem automóveis.Adulto, Geraldo foi para o norte do Paraná e viveu o momento histórico da colonização daquela região. Inspetor de Terras, foi chamado depacificadorpor seu trabalho na regularização da propriedade de terras. Ele conta sobre os tiroteios, as cidades recém-criadas e as dificuldades de mediar conflitos num lugar em que valia a lei do mais forte.Espero que seja um trabalho útil para mostrar um pouco da vida daquela época, tudo que tinha de rústica, sofrida e difícil, mas também o que tinha de bom - e que é lamentável termos perdido. Para meus filhos e netos, também é um pequeno relato sobre nossas origens.
