Unpack the history of the real man behind one of the world's most controversial legends.

In history, fewer have been the object of this amount of fascination and speculation than Christopher Columbus. In critically examining Columbus's life, pioneering voyages, and legacy, this work untangles the myths entwined in reality about his life that have been around for centuries. Through an intense examination of different aspects of his life-such as his background, motives, exploratory work, and legacy lived beyond-this work attempts to go beyond biography by placing his life in an evolutionary context with implications that extend beyond.

From where he was born, to the ships he sailed on, to whether he proved the earth wasn't flat, this book takes a look at what you think you know about Christopher Columbus and provides the real history behind the man and the myths that followed him. Grounded in primary sources, the book guides readers in a critical analysis of how myths are made and how to separate fact and fiction.
