Dr. Manuel Rosa's 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘶𝘴 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘶𝘴 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘯 is a fantastic book that seeks to establish the true identity of Christopher Columbus, the man who discovered the Americas. Rosa left no stone unturned during their research. This book covered several aspects of Don Cristobal Colon's life, including birth, death, education, marriage, social status, interactions with rulers, and information in various documents. The author simultaneously compares it to that of Cristoforo Colombo of Genoa, Italy.

𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘣𝘶𝘴 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘶𝘴 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘯, a doctoral dissertation by Dr. Rosa, extensively examines the truth and falsehood about Christopher Columbus. Beginning with the examination of the birth year of Don Cristobal Colon, comparing it to the birth date of Christoforo Colombo, their lineage, lifestyle, and education, Dr. Rosa makes a discovery that amuses the reader. Running from different countries like Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Castile to several researchers and scholars, this book simplifies a rather confusing history.

I'm excited to have come across this book and dedicating my time to keenly read it. I liked the amount of effort Dr. Rosa put in to piece together all this information. Rosa presents an exhaustive research project and consistent information from the beginning to the end. I loved refreshing memories of historical data presented by this book. I was excited to learn how information that was kept secret left the whole world confused, making different biographers, researchers, and scholars have their own version of Christopher Columbus. I didn't find anything to make me dislike this book. I loved every bit from the beginning to the end.

I give this book a 𝟓 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝟓 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫 rating. This book was professionally and flawlessly edited. I did not encounter any grammar errors. I loved reading every paragraph and chapter. The book flows seamlessly. I recommend this book to historians and people who love to read history books. They will find it enjoyable as they will encounter several historical events that excite them. I commend Dr. Rosa for a job well done.

The deep dive into Columbus’s true identity and the thorough research sound fascinating. The fact that it sheds light on secretive historical details really piques my interest. It seems like a well-researched and well-written read, and I’d be curious to explore it myself.
