The Improbable Story of Christopher Columbus: A Fresh View on Columbus, the Inquisition, and Spanish Jews - Paperback

by Richard Bergman (Author)

A recent study of the DNA of both Christopher Columbus and his son, Hernando Colon, was conducted by a team of distinguished forensic specialists. They concluded what historians and scientists have suspected for many years...that Columbus was a Sephardic Jew from Spain who concealed his true heritage to avoid persecution.

This exciting and imaginative book depicts the difficult lives of the Jews of Spain under Torquemada and the Inquisition. It then explains the role of the famous explorer and adventurer, Christopher Columbus, in discovering the New World.

Lastly, you will learn about the disaster that befell the beautiful indigenous Taino people and their role in helping to create a new homeland for Jews in Hispaniola.
