La meravigliosa avventura di Colombo

Rate this book
Paolo Emilio Taviani si è dedicato con passione tutta genovese all'impresa di Cristoforo Colombo ed è considerato il massimo colombista a livello mondiale. Apparso nel 1989 e da anni esaurito, "L'avventura di Cristoforo Colombo" è, come Taviani amava dire, un romanzo di fatti veri. Dunque una vita di Cristoforo Colombo sempre rigorosamente documentata, ma insieme aperta a un'evocazione dei luoghi, dei personaggi, degli stati d'animo.

306 pages, Paperback

First published September 10, 1991

This is a good primer on Columbus, specifically his four voyages. Although there is information as regards the man, as any biography would naturally include, if you're looking for a character study, this isn't it. Keeping in mind that this is condensed version of a much more in-depth, and longer, biography, there are plenty of stepping-off points for further study. Since this was written by an Italian biographer, and translated into English, some of the "flow" is suspect, but hardly impossible.

The author is Paolo Emilio Taviani, not Jill Tattersall.
