Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Archer With Columbus One fine afternoon in the autumn of 1491, Ignacio Diaz, a tailor of the seaport town of Palos, was seated upon his table busily at work on a new cassock evidently intended for a priest or monk. Diaz was a short, obese man with a round, red face. He was ignorant and avaricious, servile to his superiors and tyrannical to those beneath him. One of the chief victims of his petty tyranny was his apprentice, Felix Madrigal, a friendless orphan boy, whose unwilling drudgery was repaid with scanty fare and abundant blows. Yet Ignacio Diaz considered himself a person of consequence; and after the events related in this story, his self-importance increased greatly, and for the rest of his life he boasted of the part he had taken in one of the grandest achievements in the history of mankind.
