Discussed
“Um Laurence Bergreen, author of Columbus the Four Voyages, notes that there are rumors that the Columbus family had once been half wealthy but like Genoa had fallen from their past glory by the time Christopher came into the picture.”
Discussed
“And I'm going to quote from Bergreen's book Columbus here. Only green M&M's upon the ship. It's kind of worse than that. Okay. The personal demands that Columbus made of King João were far more onerous and unrealistic.”
