Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spurred by a deep religious conviction, a lust for gold and the riches of the Orient, the Genoise explorer Christopher Columbus set sail from Spain to find a trade route to China. In his first voyage starting in 1492 he found little gold and did not reach China. What he did find was lush islands filled with friendly natives and vast new lands to explore and conquer. The next three voyages would transform this world-class navigator and explorer into a failure as a colonial governor and administrator. The Spanish colonists that were planted into the New World proved to be brutal masters of the indigenous Indians, virtually eliminating entire tribes. Though Columbus's image has been tarnished by his harsh treatment of the native people, he was truly a man that changed the map of the world and the course of human history. This short biography tells the amazing story of the legendary man and his grand adventure of discovery.The book "Christopher Columbus and the Discovery of the Americas" gives a concise look at the voyages and discoveries of Christopher Columbus. To illustrate the story there are numerous pictures of the people, places, and events that were part of this historic adventure. In addition, the book contains: a list of reference books for further reading, a timeline of the explorer's epic journeys that puts the events and that period of history in sequence, and a section that contains short biographical sketches of the key individuals in the book. 30-Minute Book SeriesThis is the 47th book in the 30-Minute Book Series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some myths don't die, and lies are still being told about Christopher Columbus: that he 'discovered' the Americas, that the land was sparsely populated by native people, that those people were primitive and that they submitted to Columbus's 'God-like' authority. Loewen disproves the myths about Columbus still enshrined in American textbooks with quotations from primary source material that sets the record straight. The poster and accompanying 48-page paperback book sum up the mistellings - and reveal the real story - in a graphically appealing and accessible format.

Book excerpt: BCC: The Life of Columbus has been called the cornerstone of the history of the American continent. The first issue of this edition, which appeared in 1910, vividly recreates the moral and intellectual atmosphere of Columbus's world. A lasting biography of thoughtfulness and scope, it encompasses Columbus's formative years including his life in Spain and a fascinating account of his earliest voyages of discovery. In addition, Sir Arthur Helps examines Columbus's role as the courageous "Discoverer of America" in light of his devoted and unwavering support of the Catholic Church in Spain and its flourishing influence in the Americas. AUTHOR BIO: Sir Arthur Helps (1817-1875), an English author and biographer, was educated at Trinity College in Cambridge. Among his numerous books, many of which have been republished in the U.S., those that refer specifically to America include Conquerors of the New World and Their Bondsmen (London, 1848), The Spanish Conquest in America, and Its Relation to the History of Slavery (1855), The Life of Pizarro (1869), and Life of Cortez (1871). He was made Knight of the British Empire in 1872.
