S1 - 054 - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 2

Columbus' second voyage.  Please be warned, this is a very sad subject and the episode involves some distressing scenes.  Please make sure you're in the right frame of mind before listening.  We felt that it was important to show the whole grim story.

S1 - 053b - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 1B

We now see what happens when Columbus and his men arrive at the Indies and meet the local inhabitants....and I am sure that it is all good!

S1 - 053 - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 1A

This is the first of ten episodes on the ramifications of Columbus' voyage.

Columbus.  A famous - infamous - name.  A man who splits opinion ... although on this podcast we were unanimous in our opinion of him.  This episode was so long we split it into two.

P.S. I later found out why Columbus called the people he met Indians.  Answer in Part Four.

S1 - 052 Cecily of York

One of the many daughters of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville.  She could tell us so much about what it was like to be in sanctuary, the fate of the Princes in the Tower and whether Perkin Warbeck was who he said he was.  She won't...but she could.
