Description: This book explores the boundless courage and vision of Christopher Columbus, a seafarer who forever altered the course of history by discovering the Americas. Long before Columbus embarked on his epic voyage, the prevailing belief was that the world ended just beyond the Canary Islands. This book immerses readers in the climate of uncertainty and speculation prevalent at the time, setting the stage for Columbus's remarkable achievement. Columbus's meticulous planning, unwavering determination, and skilled navigation techniques are brought to life in vivid detail, highlighting his groundbreaking contributions to cartography and astronomy. The book also sheds light on the indigenous peoples encountered during these voyages, their customs, beliefs, and interactions with the explorers, offering a nuanced perspective on the complexities of cross-cultural encounters. Through a captivating narrative, this book unravels the motivations, challenges, and consequences of Columbus's extraordinary expeditions, providing a fresh examination of the man and his legacy.
