Christopher Columbus most likely wasn’t the person to discover the Americas. He wasn’t even the first European to do so! Despite that, his three trips to the Western Hemisphere led to many more European explorers heading in that direction.

Supported by full-color and historic images, interesting main content turns what readers think they know about the life of Columbus on its head while expounding on an important period in the history of the world.

Las franjas y las telas listadas fueron durante mucho tiempo en occidente marcas de exclusión e infamia. Las llevaron juglares, músicos, bufones, verdugos, condenados, herejes, judíos, musulmanes, así como el Diablo y sus criaturas en la iconografía.
