The epic, never-before-told story of Columbus’s final, and
perhaps greatest, journey to the New World. The final
voyage of Christopher Columbus was by far his most
dangerous, unexpected, exhilarating, and consequential. It
was, as Pulitzer Prize-winner Samuel Eliot Morison put
it, "a story of adventure which imagination could hardly
invent; a struggle between man and the elements, in which
the most splendid manifestations of devotion, loyalty and
courage are mingled with the vilest human passions."
Shockingly, no book has been written about this fateful
final journey until now. Martin Dugard finally brings to
light this saga of shipwreck, mutiny, discovery, and
political treachery--telling the story of how Columbus’s
quest to find a passage to the Orient drove him onward in
the face of peril. Here we meet Christopher Columbus, the
determined, and sometimes desperate, elder adventurer--a
far cry from the shrouded hero/villain of legend. THE LAST
VOYAGE OF COLUMBUS offers up the long-lost last chapter in
the life of a man whose story we only thought we knew.
