Letter and Chart of Toscanelli e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The English edition of this work, which I now give to the public, differs in many respects from the French edition. Several new chapters have been added, and important alterations and amplifications made. I have enlarged considerably on the personal role of Columbus in the fraud I seek to unveil, and the portion of the work bearing on the map has been both recast and extended. This part has been further completed by a new table for the understanding of the measurements attributed to Toscanelli in a form at once clearer and more detailed, and by a hypothetical restoration of the famous map which is supposed to have played so famous a part in the scheme which led to the discovery of America. The notes have also been increased and amended, while a great number of entirely new ones, including some of the most important, have been added.<br><br>Finally, additional Appendices accompany the work.
