Colón y el mapa templario
los últimos descubrimientos de una biografía maldita
Fernández Urresti, Mariano
The history of the Admiral is an eternal "cold case". We know almost nothing with certainty about him, and even what is known has so many gaps that it is difficult to make safe statements. The origin of him is not clear and there is no consensus on the place where his remains rest. In this book, the reader will find the surprising possibility that the Genoese Christóforo Colombo is not our Christopher Columbus; he will have news about pirates, about stolen documents and about forged texts. He will find mentions of mysterious maps, the Knights Templar and Jewish cartographers in the pay of those same monks. He will discover dark love affairs, rigged biographies and court conspiracies. On the nights of October 6 and 9, 1492, the sailors who made up the first Columbian expedition were about to throw the Admiral overboard because his promises of finding land 750 leagues away had proven false. Did the reader know that it was the Pinzón brothers who prevented the death of Columbus? Did the Admiral really believe he had reached the Indies? Who were the white Indians that he encountered in America? And the enigmatic men dressed in white robes? And how did he know the best return itinerary? Did Columbus have privileged information and played with marked cards? And his grave? Where is it really?
