Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life Christopher Columbus A series of volumes, upon the Pioneers and Patriots of America, would certainly be defective if they did not contain an account of the adventures of Christopher Columbus, the most illustrious of all the pioneers of the New World.

Download or read book The Story of Christopher Columbus Classic Reprint written by Charles W. Moores and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Christopher Columbus Sents peculiar difficulties. There are no sources of exact information about many of the facts of his career. It is not known with certainty when he was born or where, or how his boyhood and youth were spent; or whether he was learned in the books or attained his success through a knowledge of nature at first hand. His death went almost unnoticed, and his burial place is unknown. At best, his biography is a recounting of the proba bilities, the story of what the biographer believes he did. Columbus was a mystic. A great vision came to him and became the controlling influence of his life. Faith in the V1s1on gave him courage to face hunger and pain.

Download or read book A Life of Christopher Columbus Classic Reprint written by Horace Roscoe St. John and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Life of Christopher Columbus This volume was at first written without the aid of Washington Irving's work. The old narratives, including that by the son of Columbus, and his own letters, supplied the body of the biography, which I once intended to swell to dimensions far more voluminous. The American writer enabled me, with little labour, to fill in such minute details as could be introduced into a narrative so slight, and it is as much from feeling as from duty, that I congratulate Washington Irving on his work, and America on the historian of her discovery. The graceful style, and the warm spirit of his writings, have made him a familiar friend with the English reader; and, in producing this little biography of Christopher Columbus, I trust I shall be considered rather as seeking to follow in his track than as attempting to rival even the most compressed version of his narrative. In the "Life and Voyages" of Columbus, we have one monument of his fame, engraved elaborately with a picture of all his varied fortunes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Portraits of Christopher Columbus That which Columbus tells us about his studies is nearly all that we know about the mat ter. One of his letters to Ferdinand and Isa bella shows us that to the theories of the period he joined an experience of twenty-three years of navigation, that he had seen all the Levant, the Occ1dent and the North; that he had Visited Eng land and made several voyages to Lisbon and the coasts of Guinea. He also speaks himself of an excursion that he made to Chios, and of an expo dition to Tunis of which he was given charge by King Rena of Anjou. But of all these divers voyages we possess no pre01se information suf ficient to fix the dates, still less the Circum stances.
