Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Man and Apes: An Exposition of Structural Resemblances and Differences Bearing Upon Questions of Affinity and Origin

Christopher Columbus, with a hardihood now somewhat difficult to realise, sailed across an utterly unknown ocean to the discovery of a New World, which nevertheless has not received its appellation from him, but from his imitator, Amerigo Vespucci.
