"Amongst some archaeologists, who specialize in the opening of the New 
World, the reason Columbus' diaries have never been released by the family 
is
that they reveal that much of his fortune came from selling pubescent girls, 
and boys, to grandees in the Old World."

What great heroes we chose for ourselves and teach our children to revere!
I wonder how many historians on this list teach that to their students.
