Excerpt from School of Education Library: Textbook Collection The headland upon which La Rabida is situated is based between two rivers, the Tinto and Domingo Rubio, the confluent waters of which form the Odiel, then flow past a sandy island and mid foaming break ers to the ocean. Down this channel, float ing on the bosom of the T into from palos, came the caravels of Columbus, one day in August, 1492, and, taking their departure from La Rabida, sailed out into the ocean, on that voyage which made their crews akin to the immortals.

Huelva was the copper port of ancient Tarshish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
