The voyage of Christopher Columbus in 1492 is one of the most significant journeys ever made by man. It led directly to the colonisation of America by Europeans, something that has had an enormous impact on the modern world. This book is not only a fascinating account of Robin Knox- Johnston’s voyage but also gives some original insights into the kind of ocean crossing that Columbus experienced and a valuable indication of Columbus’s true landing place in the New World.
