Description

1849 Christopher Columbus Life & Voyages Washington Irving Illustrated Maps

“Great minds have purpose, others have wishes. Little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortunes; but great minds rise above them.”

― Washington Irving

Washington Irving was an American author, essayist, biographer and historian of the early 19th century. The trials and disappointments of the great explorer Christopher Columbus are graphically detailed in this biographical account first published in 1828, when Irving was America's most famous writer. Written while in Spain, ‘Life and Voyages of Christopher Columbus’ was Irving’s greatest contribution as an historian and helped earn him an impressive reputation in Spain.
