Book Description
Excerpt from Christophe Colomb Whatever were the defects of his mental constitution, the finger of the historian will find it difficult to point to a single blemish in his moral character. His corre spondence breathes the sentiment of devoted loyalty to his Sovereigns. His conduct habitually displayed the utmost solicitude for the interests of his followers. His dealings were regulated by the nicest principles of honour and justice. His last communication to the Sovereigns from the Indies remonstrates against the use of violent measures, in order to extract gold from the natives, as a thing equally scandalous and impolitic. The grand Object to which be dedicated himself seemed to expand his whole soul, and raised it above the petty shifts and artifices by which great ends are sometimes sought to be compassed. There are some men in whom rare virtues have been closely allied, if not to positive vice, to degrading weakness.

Excerpt from The Life and Voyages of Christopher Columbus, Vol. 1: To Which Are Added Those of His Companions This assertion is indignantly contradicted by his son Fer nando, though there is nothing in it improbable, and he gives us no information of his father's occupation to supply its place. He could not, however, have remained long in this employment, as, according to his own account, he entered upon a nautical life when but fourteen years of age.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Christopher Columbus Thus, when the great oriental civilization of India and Egypt seems efl'ete from age, and God wishes to call Asia and the West to a younger, more active, and more stirring civilization, Alexander starts, without well knowing why, from the valleys of Macedonia, taking with him the enthusiasm and the soldiers of Greece and before the terror and glory of his name, the known world becomes one, from the Indus to the extremes of Europe.

Excerpt from Vie de Christophe Colomb Il n'en est pas de Christophe Colomb comme de la plupart des grands hommes que lhistoire nous pre-sente en exemple, et dont la gloire est souvent ternie par des actes qui blessent la morale, la justice ou ll1u manite: c'est en vain que leurs admirateurs cherchent. a justifier de tels actes par des motifs specieux de politique ou dimperieuse necessite; cette pretendue gloire nen est pas moins contestee, elle est meme niee par les esprits droits qui ne reconnaissent de veritable grandeur que celle qui est basee sur la vertu. "La gloire suit la vertu comme l'ombre suit le corps: a dit le plus eloquent des orateurs romains. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
