Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Commemorative Edition. Fine unread condition brown boards with gold front cover lettering, gold spine lettering, and brown front cover and spine title lettering within a gold rectangular border, contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Preliminary Page Justin Winsor Letter to Francis Parkman dated June, 1890 and Index. The copyright page states in part: "This special reprint edition in honor of the 500th Anniversary of Christopher Columbus's discovery of America is published by Longmeadow Press." All pages are in as new unmarked condition and the spine/binding is in as new exceedingly tight condition. "A sampling of facts about Columbus from this book: His real name was Cristoforo Colombo. He was born in Genoa, Italy. His father was a weaver. The maximum speed of his ships was 4 m.p.h. The first voyage to the New World took two months and nine days. He died at age 70. His parents were Suzanna de Fontanarossa and Domenico Colombo. The site of his landing in the New World was an island in the Bahamas." - from the rear outer jacket. "This special commemorative edition - published on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus - is a reprint of Justin Winsor's original historical work, first published [over] a century ago. It addresses every question you will probably ever have about the life and times of Columbus. This book reveals the truth about the private and public life of the Hero of the Age of Discovery. In its pages, you'll read his actual correspondence. see his sketches and personal maps. learn of his family, friends, and role models . of his enemies and competitors. his astounding adventures, disheartening failures, and glorious achievements. Christopher Columbus was a living, breathing human being with passions and ideas - a man of intelligence and imagination - willing to defy his senses and believe that the earth was round, not flat. His name is synonymous with bravery, determination, leadership, and heroism. He is a man in whose honor cities, parks, boats, and even spaceships have been reverentially named. Indeed, when the astronauts first set out for the moon in 1969, their mind-boggling mission was compared - and rightly so - to that of Columbus's discovery of the New World in 1492, a date that has been ingrained in the collective American memory. But the magnitude of his accomplishments and the passage of five hundred years have rendered him larger than life. Who was the real Christopher Columbus? This is the question that this monumental volume attempts to answer. Justin Winsor (1831-1897), the author of this work and a well-respected man of letters, was a historian, poet, literary critic, fiction writer and librarian of Harvard University. Around the turn of the century, he embarked upon a voyage of his own to retrace every important aspect of Columbus's life, from his family origins to his final state of mind. Winsor was remarkably successful, and his book was originally issued in 1892, on the 400th anniversary of the great mariner's first voyage to the New World. This work will be of interest to scholars and laymen alike, for it represents an honest, well-documented search for the truth about Columbus. As such, it contains a myriad of facts, as well as intriguing suppositions and deductions - plus reproductions of ancient maps, sketches, drawings, portraits, letters, and other documents (twenty-three of which, wholly or in part, are in Columbus's own hand) - that will almost surely cast Columbus in a new light before your eyes. Furthermore, it is a book that you can proudly add to your home library, for such a Commemorative Edition as this is obtainable in its year of publication only once a century, and the 500th Anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus shall, of course, never occur again." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
