[Kelly · Rating 3 out of 5]

A brief, rudimentary version of the voyages of Christopher Columbus. I think the book offers enough information to the target audience so that the reader can decide if more information is desired.

Mildly interesting, but definitely a book for the younger grades. Simplistic version of Christopher Columbus's voyages to the new world. It does point out somthing that isn't normally duiscussed in history, about what the oceans were origionally called before America was discovered. The sea (ocean) of darkness (some countries called it the great sea).
