COLUMBUS'S LAST VOYAGE

In COLUMBUS'S LAST VOYAGE, Martin Dugard recounts this epic adventure. Columbus's definitive, yet still largely unexplored, expedition to the ends of the Earth in search of fame and redemption. According to the sailor himself, it was his greatest voyage, yet also his most treacherous. With historical acuity, pace, and style, Dugard unveils the explorer's fourth excursion. A world of terrible storms, mutinies, wars, and a shipwreck that left Columbus stranded on a desert island for nearly a year. In his wake, his enemies, sent from Europe. Ahead of him, only the unknown. With this gripping account of his final voyage, his last and final expedition, Martin Dugard brings Columbus to life like no other—the adventurer, the businessman, the father, the lover, the tyrant, and the hero.
