Conquest of Paradise

The greatest adventure of all time - the tale of a humble mariner who set sail from Spain one August morning in 1492. He went in search of the orient but found himself instead a place beyond even his wildest dreams. His name was Christopher Columbus and his discovery was the New World. \nDepicting Columbus's struggles against overwhelming odds and the discoveries that were so fantastic they were beyond belief. It also tells how the Eden he found all too quickly became hell; and how, when the cries of a hero's welcome home had faded, Columbus was left to die in obscurity. \nThis is a story of a true adventurer's life and times; the story of a man whose quest not only changed the map of the world but also changed the course of history forever.
