Book excerpt: As Columbus sets sail on his first voyage to the "Indies" from the Spanish port of Palos de la Frontera, he writes to his son Diego: "When we return, Diego, you will no longer be the son of a penniless vagabond. No, Diego, you will be the son of the Admiral of the Ocean Sea. As we cross the bar and leave the land to enter the great Ocean Sea, I speak this promise to you and to the wind: we will leave our mark, Diego, and ourname. Many will remember this day and this place. ''
