App Description

The Christopher Columbus: A Historical Collection app has developed amidst a changing perception of Christopher Columbus; a man who has gone from being considered a hero to one who is now considered by some to be one of the most harmful villains in world history. So who exactly was Christopher Columbus?

Discover for yourself with this app. Was he the greedy and barbaric pillager of peaceful Indian villages that his critics maintain he was, or was he the great mariner and discoverer of the New World? Well, both, it seems. Both depictions of Columbus can be argued in-depth. The Christopher Columbus: A Historical Collection app, with its collection of 55+ historical texts and images, allows you to make up your own mind about this great admiral of the sea.

App Features:

• High Resolution Images: View books, images and documents in high resolution. You can easily zoom in to see the smallest details. You may even see library marks within the books, just as you would if you held the book in real life.

• Offline Bookshelf: Download the books for easy reading, anytime.

All artifacts within this app are available only in English.
