Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book studies the life and times of Christopher Columbus, the explorer whose voyages to the "New World" forever changed the course of human history. It starts with his early life, family, and career as a sea captain in Portugal before covering his proposals to the Spanish monarchy for an expedition to find a westward route to Asia. The book provides a detailed account of Columbus's four voyages under the Spanish flag, his interactions with the indigenous peoples in the lands he visited, and his return to Spain, where he died in 1506, still convinced that he had reached the Orient. The book argues that Columbus was not just a skilled navigator, but a visionary who believed that the Earth was round and could be circumnavigated. His unwavering conviction against all odds, and his determination to prove his theory make for a great story of passion and achievement.
