What he asks is really small compared with what Spain will gain. the war with the Moors has cost you ever so much; your money-chests are empty; Columbus will fill them up. the people of Cathay are heathen; Columbus will help you make them Christian men. the Indies and Cathay are full of gold and jewels; Columbus will bring you home shiploads of treasures. Spain has conquered the Moors; Columbus will help you conquer Cathay.Brooks, Elbridge S. is the author of 'True Story of Christopher Columbus', published 2004 under ISBN 9781419285974 and ISBN 1419285971.
