Here is a very accurate excerpt about him:

This is also a good article:

Columbus was a failure. He did not deliver on any of his promises. He did not open a new route to India and failed to contact the rulers of Japan. (Although, he was convinced that Cuba was part of Asia.)
His only solution to was to make sure that he did not come home empty handed. Thus, Columbus returned with something that no explorers visiting the Americas ever had. He brought back slaves.
Columbus returned to Europe with 1,200 Taino Indians. They were paraded around the streets naked and sold into slavery. Stunningly, over the course of four years Columbus removed one-third of the population of Hispaniola.

The historic previous of all international locations is plagued by renowned adult males and girls of questionable character, and that i do no longer care to get caught up in arguing over notwithstanding if or no longer Columbus could be held individually responsible for the destruction of community custom. notwithstanding, i do no longer see why the guy needs a countrywide trip for attempting to sail around the Atlantic to China and stumbling onto the hot international instead. i'm particular it required large bravery, yet so did the acts of countless others for whom no trip exists, and it quite is already been shown that he wasn't the 1st ecu to make it right here. All issues seen, I say drop it. perchance exchange the date and rename it Explorers' Day, or some thing else that each and each physique people can rejoice.

There's always the encyclopedias in the youth section of the library! I've used them many times. Or, if you email me, I'm sure I can scrounge something up for you from information I have on my computer.
