Penulis: William Elihu Palmer

William Elihu Palmer grew up near Salisbury, Maryland where he taught Spanish at Salisbury University. His wife, Angeles, is from Spain. They have four children. His interest in Columbus developed while teaching at the University of Salamanca, Spain, in 1965. Since then he has traveled to many of the places important in the life of Columbus. In 1989 he attended the National Endowment of the Humanities Institute at UCLA on “The Intellectual World of Christopher Columbus”. During the celebration of the Quincentenary of the discovery of the New World in 1992 he performed a one-man show called “Columbus Rediscovered.” This book “The Lost Journal of Christopher Columbus” probes the intimate thoughts and deep motives of the Admiral of the Ocean Sea.
