An Inglorious Columbus is a book written by Edward P. Vining that presents evidence supporting the theory that a group of Buddhist monks from Afghanistan, led by Hwui Shan, discovered America in the 5th century AD, almost a thousand years before Christopher Columbus. The book argues that the monks traveled across the Pacific Ocean, arriving on the West Coast of North America, and established a settlement in what is now California. Vining provides historical and linguistic evidence to support his claim, including similarities between Native American languages and ancient Asian languages. The book challenges the traditional narrative of American history and offers a new perspective on the early exploration of the continent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
