Description

Five hundred years ago an Italian whose name, translated into English, meant Christopher Dove, came to The united states and started a process not of discovery, but incursion — “a ruthless, offended seek for wealth” that continues to the present day. This provocative and superbly written book gives a true assessment of Columbus’s legacy at the same time as taking the first steps toward its redemption. While he draws a right away line between the atrocities of Spanish conquistadors and the ongoing pillage of our lands and waters, Barry Lopez challenges us to adopt an ethic which will make further depredations inconceivable. The Rediscovery of North The united states is a ringingly persuasive call for us, in the end, to make this country our home.
