Reviews
"Biographers have gathered like buzzards over Columbus's bones. Two ways of scattering the buzzards and scotching the myths are demonstrated by William D. Phillips, Jr. and Carla Rahn Phillips: stick to the primary sources and locate Columbus in his proper contexts, those indicated by the title of their book, 'The Worlds of Christopher Columbus.'" The New York Times Book Review, "The Worlds of Christopher Columbus, by Carla Rahn Phillips and William D. Phillips, will become the standard one-volume work on its subject: namely, Columbus in the history of Europe and the New World. The authors incorporate the latest scholarship available, and they understand that, before a historian can begin to praise or condemn, he must understand and explain." Washington, DC Times, "This book is a wonderful synthesis of Christopher Columbus and his times."Colonial Latin American Historical Review, "Their focus, as the title implies, is less on Columbus the man than on the historical circumstances within which he operated...Within this larger area, however, the book is magistral; very dense, with helpful notes at every turn. Maps prepared by the cartographic laboratory at the University of Minnesota closely substantiate the argument of the text...we shall need to turn to the Phillipses to track things down in detail." The Journal of American History, "William D. Phillips, Jr., and Carla Rahn Phillips have expertly set this biography of Christopher Columbus within the context of the fourteenth and fifteenth-century 'worlds' that Columbus drew together into the single world of modern times by crossing the Atlantic to the West Indies in 1492...I judge this volume to be one of the best efforts so far to set forth Columbus's life, the milieu that makes it understandable, and the consequences that make it significant." American Historical Review, "...an excellent synthesis of scholarly writings on Columbus. The work is especially valuable for its discussion of Columbus's years in Portugal and his experiences as a seafarer on Portuguese voyages into the Atlantic." Carl A. Hanson, San Antonio Light, "The Worlds of Christopher Columbus unquestionably stands out in the recent tide of literature on Columbus and the early Spanish expansion in the Americas, thanks to William and Carla Phillips's meticulous use of the evidence and their systematic endeavor to set the Columbus story into a broader historical context. The resulting reconstruction displays qualities that make the book indispensable and stimulating for the specialist and attractive to the general reader....probably the most useful study of Columbus currently available to English-speaking readers. It promises to exercise a powerful influence both in research and in teaching. Given its accessibility, clarity, and helpful documentation, it will certainly fulfill its mission of presenting 'the best evidence about Columbus and his worlds to a broad reading public' (p. ix), one of the ideals behind the recent and controversial Columbian Quincentenary." Ivana Elbl, Journal of World History, "This book is a wonderful synthesis of Christopher Columbus and his times." Colonial Latin American Historical Review, "It is as 'less a beginning than the continuation of a centuries-old human process of exploration and migration' that the authors view Columbus' enterprise; and it is the achievement of this book that it places with balance, discernment and fullness Columbus' place within the trends, swirling through the Europe of his day and the real nature of the collision his voyage instigated between two worlds." Booklist, "The Worlds of Christopher Columbus is a balanced, intelligent, and meticulously researched work examining the life and legacy of Columbus within the broad context of European exploration. Christian theology, and Spanish empire building....This is a fascinating book for anyone wanting to understand the motives and methods of the Spanish explorers and the development of a global trading system. Nominated for several awards, The Worlds of Christopher Columbus appears destined to become a modern classic." Village View, "The Phillipses succeed in their aim of presenting a balanced view, which they hope will challenge the equally distorting myths of Columbus as hero or as villain....This readable though scholarly work is recommended for public and academic libraries seeking not just a biography but a history of European exploration before Columbus."
