DOC The Freedom of a Christian; 1520: The Annotated Luther; Study Edition by Martin Luther in History

Description

Lying in only twenty-five feet of water in a small gulf off the coast of Panama; a shipwrecked vessel managed to escape detection for centuries before it was discovered in the mid-1990s. In 2002; Klaus Brinkbäumer and Clemens Höges; journalists with the German newsmagazine Der Spiegel and also amateur divers; were the first to assemble a team of experts to analyze the remains. They determined that it was not only the oldest wreck ever found in the Western Hemisphere; but also very likely the remains of the Vizcaína; one of the ships Christopher Columbus took on his last trip to the New World.The Voyage of the Vizcaína; set to be published on the five-hundredth anniversary of Columbus's death; combines investigative journalism; archaeology; and historical re-creation to give us the fascinating story-and startling truths-behind Columbus's final attempt to reach the East by going west.
