While the seven chapters of the book roughly parallel the seven parts of the television series, the book stands by itself as a unique and valuable contribution to the literature of the Columbus quincentenary. Not merely a biography of Columbus or an account of his explorations, Columbus and the Age of Discovery conveys a sense of Columbus's story as a fulcrum of social, political, and intellectual history. Five hundred years after Columbus sailed out of Spain into worlds unknown, he is for many such a vibrant symbol of energy and success that they name their towns, their colleges, and even their spaceships after him. Yet to others he also represents the double~edged nature of much of human achievement, as his legacy includes the decimation of entire New World peoples at the hands of alien disease and European rapacity. This book explores the complexities of the Columbus legend, showing how this one man came to symbolize both the spirit of heroism and the costs of colonization. It tells the story of one individual among forces of great economic, political, scientific, and cultural change ~ a story of worlds lost as well as found, as compelling as any modern~day tale of high adventure and drama. More directly than any historical novel or costume drama ever could, Columbus and the Age of Discovery speaks to our time, vividly portraying how Columbus took us from the world he left behind to our world today. Setting sail on replicas of Columbus's ships, the authors combine actual experience with archival material to create a living history of the wonders of exploration. Along the way they touch on a wealth of intriguing themes: Why didn't other advanced societies~Chinese, Scandinavian, Arab~sail to the New World first? What motivated the men of the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria who went forth to explore the New World? Could there have been an Age of Discovery without significant advances in navigational techniques, weaponry, and geographical knowledge? Was Columbus a hero of epic proportions, a shrewd entrepreneur, or a rank colonialist? How did the Columbian exchange ~ the massive transfer of plants, animals, peoples, and cultures between the New and Old Worlds ~ change history? Richly illustrated with over 240 full~color and 96 black~and~white illustrations, photos, charts, and maps ~ some from the images used in the television production, others exclusively in this book ~ Columbus and the Age of Discovery draws upon the knowledge of international experts in fields as diverse as navigation, religion, anthropology, the history of colonialism and trade, agriculture, and epidemiology. Here is the essential volume for understanding the adventure, the myth, and the history of Christopher Columbus's achievement on the occasion of its five~hundredth anniversary.
