Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Columbus is depicted in a realistic light, challenging negative theories while candidly addressing his treatment of Native Americans. The author draws on personal experiences from two years of retracing Columbus's sea routes, capturing the adventure and monotony faced by Columbus and his crew. This work also highlights the scarcity and rising costs of early publications, as it aims to republish classic texts in accessible, high-quality editions, preserving the original content and illustrations.
