What is 1493 : Uncovering the New World Columbus Created about?

Amazon.com Review \*\*Guest Reviewer: Nathaniel Philbrick on \*1493\* by Charles C. Mann\*\* \*\*\*Nathaniel Philbrick\*\* is the author of the \*New York Times \*bestsellers \*The Last Stand\*; \*In the Heart of the Sea\*, which won the National Book Award; \*Sea of Glory\*, winner of the Theodore and Franklin D. Roosevelt Naval History Prize; and \*Mayflower\*, which was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in history and one of the \*New York Times'\* ten best books of the year. He has lived on Nantucket since 1986.\* I’m a big fan of Charles Mann’s previous book \*1491\*, in which he provides a sweeping and provocative examination of North and South America prior to the arrival of Christopher Columbus. It’s exhaustively researched but so wonderfully written that it’s anything but exhausting to read. With his follow-up, \*1493\*, Mann has taken it to a new, truly global level. Building on the groundbreaking work of Alfred Crosby (author of \*The Columbian Exchange\* and, I’m proud to say, a fellow Nantucketer), Mann has written nothing less than the story of our world: how a planet of what were once several autonomous continents is quickly becoming a single, “globalized” entity.
