Should be required reading in every classroom where the “Columbus encounter” is taught.
In this daring, honest history, Koning explodes the myth of Columbus by presenting the greed, cruelty, and beginnings of European imperialism embodied in the man and his mission. Koning’s analysis, rather than the traditional sanitized textbook versions, should be required reading in every classroom where the “Columbus encounter” is taught.
