Description: Further DetailsTitle: Columbus on HimselfCondition: NewEAN: 9781603841344ISBN: 9781603841344Publisher: Hackett Publishing Co, IncFormat: HardbackRelease Date: 03/15/2010Description: Intended as an antidote to potted biographies and piecemeal reconstructions of his voyages, this volume draws on judicious selections from Christopher Columbus's own writings--chronologically arranged, and translated into idiomatic English--to relate his self-perception and personal history, as far as is possible, in his own words. The result is a full and vivid (and often surprising) portrait of this complex man and the role he thought he was destined to play as God's instrument on earth. Twenty-four illustrations, maps of Columbus’s routes across the Atlantic and his travels in the West Indies, and an index further enhance this introduction to his life and discoveries.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 153mmItem Weight: 539gGenre: Science Nature & MathTopic: BiographyAuthor: Felipe Fernndez-ArmestoRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
