2011 Reprint of the 1920 Edition. Illustrated by Cosgrove. Full
facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical
Recognition Software. This is the actual log of Christopher
Columbus as copied out by his companion, Bartholomew Las Casas.
Besides being authentic source material about the voyage and the
core of the Columbus legend, this journal has all the day-by-day
enchantment of a long sea voyage with all the drama of a small ship
steering into the unknown-the first pelican, a crab in the seaweed,
a branch of roseberries and a carved log found floating in the
water, mutterings of mutiny and the constant watch for signs of
land. John Cosgrove, the illustrator, adds to the book on every
page with pictures of whales and riggings, compasses and charts,
which are both decorative and accurate pictorial footnotes to the
log.
