⚓An Ignoble Beginning:
In the first ten chapters of The Life of the Admiral Christopher Columbus, written by his son Ferdinand Columbus, the narrative originally published in1571, focuses on the early life, career, and voyages of Christopher Columbus. Ferdinand begins by describing his father’s background, his early years in Genoa, and his passion for navigation and exploration. Columbus is depicted as a determined and ambitious individual, driven by a desire to find new trade routes to the East and to spread Christianity.
A fervent Ferdinand recounts how multiple writers of the time attempt to downplay or befuddle Christopher's background and merits. Debunking nautical nuances as well as attacks on his legacy and legitimacy.
From one-eyed sailors in local taverns to mythological history to mathematical impossibilities, Columbus was encouraged by a host of reasons for his now destined voyage to the Americas. Enjoy this introduction to one of the most controversial and celebrated sea voyagers of all time.
