Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christopher Columbus and the New World of His Discovery: A Narrative I have received the proofs of the new and revised edition of your Columbus, and I have noted the passages which have been materially altered from the original edition. This book marks an epoch in Columbian literature for in it the hero who discovered the New World is shown for the first time as a living man. You have raised him from the dust of documents and shown him as a human being, a creature of flesh and blood who acts thinks, loves and fights like ourselves, and who is subject, as all real men must be, to passions, mistakes and illusions. You have had the courage to cut loose from the traditional line followed by all the modern biographers of Columbus; and although I differ from you in certain details, I look upon your book as giving a more true and lively picture of the great discoverer than is contained in any other work written on the subject.
