Intended as an antidote to potted biographies and piecemeal
reconstructions of his voyages, this volume draws on judicious
selections from Christopher Columbus's own
writings--chronologically arranged, and translated into idiomatic
English--to relate his self-perception and personal history, as far
as is possible, in his own words. The result is a full and vivid
(and often surprising) portrait of this complex man and the role he
thought he was destined to play as God's instrument on earth.
Twenty-four illustrations, maps of Columbus's routes across the
Atlantic and his travels in the West Indies, and an index further
enhance this introduction to his life and discoveries.
