Cristoforo Colombo: Documenti e prove della sua appartenenza a Genova.
Published in Genoa by Edition Franco-Spagnole in 1932.
In-folio format (400x300 mm).
Cream cloth. Smooth spine. First plate with the coat of arms of the city of Genoa.
XXIII-288 pages- 1 f.n.ch. of tables, 73 reproductions of manuscripts, Genoese and Spanish registers, plates and books, pasted on or in the text.
Very good overall condition, a few stains on boards.
Impressive sum, given on the occasion of the 440th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus, compiling all the manuscript and printed documents tending to prove Columbus' Genoese origin.
Published in 1932, it is still the reference work on Columbus's origins, both for the precision of its sources and the exhaustiveness of its approach.
