This is the incredible, true story of the calamitous fourth voyage of Christopher Columbus to the "New World." It has all the elements of fiction...hurricanes, pitched battles with the natives of Panama, being marooned on Jamaica for more than a year, mutiny by half of the crew, bloody battles with former shipmates, a heroic trip in an open canoe over the open ocean before final rescue.
The book is presented in a format for Spanish-Speakers studying English. English is shown in boldface followed immediately by the Spanish translation in italics. One can easily read the book in English as one normally would or quickly check the translation to see how good their comprehension is.
