Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Christopher Columbus' discovery of the Americas, which would become known as the New World. The author traces the context of Columbusâ voyages within the broader history of European exploration, particularly the Portuguese voyages of exploration along the coast of Africa under the sponsorship of Prince Henry the Navigator, and the influence of Marco Polo's accounts of his travels in Asia. The author emphasizes the significant obstacles that Columbus had to overcome in order to get his expedition funded by the Spanish monarchy, and the skepticism and fear that his crew experienced as they ventured farther and farther into uncharted waters. The book also analyzes the impact of Columbus's discovery on the indigenous peoples of the Americas, and the beginning of European colonization. Ultimately, the book argues that Columbus's discovery was a pivotal moment in world history, connecting the Eastern and Western hemispheres and setting the stage for the globalization that would characterize the centuries that followed.
