Synopsis

This book begins by recounting the initial journey of Christopher Columbus during the 15th century when he set sail to prove his theory that the earth was round by sailing westward across the great ocean to reach the east. It then follows his subsequent voyages as he colonizes islands and establishes a permanent presence for Spain in the 'New World'. Through the narrative of the author, we experience the wonder, fear, hardships, and triumphs of the explorers, and the explorer's view of the inhabitants of the new lands. The book provides an insightful historical account of these voyages of discovery and their significance, as well as exploring the lasting impact on the world.
