What if Christopher Columbus owed his success--maybe even his very life--to two brothers who have been almost completely forgotten in the annals of history?Forgotten Brothers is the story of Mart n and Vicente Pinzόn, and their instrumental role in the eventual success of Christopher Columbus' mission. Columbus invited Mart n Pinzόn to join the expedition, but the two men would eventually become bitter rivals. And while heartbreak was the fate for the Pinzόns, Columbus returned a victor, and history regards him as a hero.Based on many long-neglected historical treatises, some as many as 140 years old, this book presents a different picture of the facts of the voyage--facts today's history books fail to reveal.
