It is so well researched and the author was an admiral so he retraced the sea routes Columbus took for more insight. Very interesting to learn about the history of his time, as well as his motivation. This is the definitive biography of Columbus.

I wanted to know more about Christopher Columbus, so I bought this book. It was published in 1942, but it is still a good, factual book about Christopher Columbus and his voyages to the New World. The author gives the background of Christopher Columbus and his efforts to get support for his journey of discovery. The book is in two volumes. I am enjoying it very much.
