<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"This book is a revised and expanded edition of 1492 and All That: Political Manipulations of History (Washington D.C.: Ethics and Public Policy Center, 1992). Chapter 7, revised for this edition, first appeared in the Intercollegiate Review (Spring 1998). The appendix is adapted from "Columbus and the Beginning of the World," First Things (May 1999)"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>After decades of politically charged controversy, the reputation and standing of Christopher Columbus lies battered beneath mountains of misjudgments and distortions. The surge of historical revisionism now ravaging the legendary explorer insists that his daring adventures brought only tragic consequences: disease, death, subjugation of native peoples, incitement of the African slave trade, destruction of the environment, and other horrors. <p> But is this a legitimate assessment of Europe's inevitable western expansion? <p> In Columbus and the Crisis of the West, Dr. Robert Royal carefully examines the mind and motives of Christopher Columbus, distinguishing him as the greatest explorer of his age, whose courage and vision extended Christian Europe and inspired the American spirit.
