Having studied the travels of other explorers, Columbus was convinced he could reach his destination by traveling west across the seas. After convincing Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand to fund his expedition, he set sail in August 1492. This account talks about the voyage Columbus undertook in his own voice through his journal entries of that year. He tells of excitement, drama, and terror on the high seas as well as the doubts he faces from his own crew as together they weathered the path to victory. Contact: [email protected]
