1898 Christopher Columbus by Ricard Voyages HAITI Taino Xaragua French Mame Art
Few names are as synonymous with New World exploration as Christopher Columbus. In fact, much of what we know of Columbus and his discoveries is from his first-hand accounts and letters. However, countless accounts of Columbus’s voyages have been published ever since.
One such account is Antoine Ricard’s “Christopher Columbus” which was made famous by the Alfred Mame edition from Tours. In this book, Ricard describes Columbus’s encounters with native tribes such as the Taino and Xaragua people in Haiti, and the ultimate Spanish conquest of the Caribbean.
This book, like many from Mame, is bound in a stunning decorative red cloth and full-page illustrations.
