Publisher's Note
Just in time for 1992, the 500th birthday of America's discovery! An unorthodox look at Columbus, claimed by all nations but no hero to his brother-in-law. Humor by Mollee Kruger, award-winning master of light verse & contemporary American folk poetry. Learn why the Santa Maria is a lemon, why enemies call Columbus the Admiral of the Mosquitoes. Meet his double-crossing partner & the sexy lady governor who almost sinks the Admiral. Marvel as he finds a new world & blows his success in a rise & fall that equals any modern media star's. For history & light verse buffs, teachers, students, senior citizens, devoted Kruger cultists. Author of four popular verse titles & a columnist for 20 years in the Anglo-Jewish press, Mollee Kruger has been called by critics "the best thing to happen to light verse since Dorothy Parker." With Columbus as a reference point, the reader will discover an experienced writer's wise hints for America in the 1990's, a Quincentenary tribute that's grassroots Americana, late 20th century style.
