Columbus in Chains: Christian Torres

Now I admire the girl in this story who wrote her mind in the book about what she thought about Columbus. We all should do the same. We also should wonder, as we did in class, about the kind of man he was. He wasn't important, least a hero when he found the New World, I think he was just lucky. It was a good thing that such different cultures were able to join together to make one such as ours, but what they had to go through during that time, it was tough. Columbus made no heroic act, but still he deserves to be a historic figure to be remembered as the lucky one that was able to find a whole new world before someone else did.
