    About this ebook

    This is the story of the famous explorer Christopher Columbus, beginning with his childhood dream of being a sailor. A courageous, determined, and sometimes greedy man, his many voyages never brought him the riches or land he sought, but what he did find was more important than he ever could have imagined.
