Written by Washington Irving, this American publication from 1868 is considered one of the first examples of historical fiction in the United States. It presents a character study of Columbus, drawing from notes of those who knew him. This historical series is known for its influence on the flat earth theory and features a Latin passage on the title page from Seneca's “Medea” which some believed foretold the discovery of the New World.
