Christopher Columbus and the Discovery of the Americas by Doug West Pdf

Spurred by a deep religious conviction, a lust for gold and the riches of the Orient, the Genoise explorer Christopher Columbus set sail from Spain to find a trade route to China. In his first voyage starting in 1492 he found little gold and did not reach China. What he did find was lush islands filled with friendly natives and vast new lands to explore and conquer. The next three voyages would transform this world-class navigator and explorer into a failure as a colonial governor and administrator. The Spanish colonists that were planted into the New World proved to be brutal masters of the indigenous Indians, virtually eliminating entire tribes. Though Columbus's image has been tarnished by his harsh treatment of the native people, he was truly a man that changed the map of the world and the course of human history.

Christopher Columbus & James Cook by The History Hour Pdf

Did Christopher Columbus discover America or a route to the Far East? Did James Cook achieve fame by mapping the known world? Were his maps so accurate that many were used right into the 20th Century? Cook, an 18th Century explorer, lived during a time when humankind was yet naïve and inexperienced in terms of understanding their environment. His legacy is quite astounding, given the fact that humanity had only begun to develop instrumentation. The people from Europe had never before seen Hawaii, Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand, Antarctica, nor crossed the Antarctic circle. He met and mingled with many different cultures, most of which were those of the South Pacific Ocean. He and his men even witnessed a human sacrifice. There were three voyages in all. The first one ran from 1768 to 1771 and included Tahiti, Australia, and New Zealand. The second voyage went from 1772 to 1775 and was mostly spent around the coast of Antarctica. Cook's third and final voyage went from 1776-1779. It entailed the western coast of North America and Alaska, where Cook fruitless sought for the fabled Northwest Passage. Did the Hawaiians murder James Cook? Was that a tragic incident that should have never happened? Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer, navigator, and colonist who had a singular goal toward which he was driven. His courage was astounding, as he and his three small ships set sail across the Atlantic Ocean. Columbus and his men took precarious and dangerous journeys toward a blue horizon. All they had to depend upon were nautical charts, an astrolabe, and a quadrant. The maps he used were developed by more ancient astronomers such as Ptolemy and Eratosthenes - men who had never sailed the great sea. The legacy of Christopher Columbus is tarred by his tyranny toward the natives he came across in the New World - specifically the Arawaks and the Caribs. He also condoned slavery through his desperation to arrive back in Spain with treasures like those brought back by other explorers. By those who made it to India and the Far East. Despite the abuses he brought upon the indigent populations, Columbus's discoveries opened up a whole new world to trade and development. Spain was the first European country to establish colonies in America and South America, followed by Portugal, France, and Holland. Inside you will read about - The First Voyages of Columbus and Cook - Voyage to Antarctica and the Search for the South Pole - Australia and New Zealand - The Third Voyage & The Troubles - The Final Voyage and Death of James Cook And much more! In this book, you'll find out all about these most remarkable men. What was it like to travel over the edge of the ocean? The voyages, not just anyone could undertake. Do not hesitate, order your copy now and discover the bravery and the brilliance of men like Columbus and Cook, who would make a dream come true and inspire a world to follow them.
