I have to say that I was tempted to stop reading in the first quarter of the book because the characters and the historical content didn't draw me in.

I'm glad that I stuck with it.

The characters each developed throughout the book with small stories of their own that wove them all together. I was disturbed by the horror of the Inquisition but it made the story that much more heart touching. Main theme of the book? No matter how small or large your dream is, always strive to reach your goal even in the face of opposition and stand behind your own beliefs.

Hope you enjoy!

Intriging story about Christopher Columbus. This about how he got the money to sail West and what happens. Engagying.
