A legacy of discovery, ruin, and enduring historical debate
In short: This video traces the life of Christopher Columbus from his Genoese origins to his final voyage. It moves beyond simple hero worship or villainy to examine the complex reality of a man who connected two worlds while leaving a trail of devastation.
The narrative is constructed from primary sources including Columbus's own journals and letters, alongside accounts from his crew and those who suffered under his rule.
