Detailed explanation-1: -Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer, navigator and coloniser. It is commonly said that “Columbus discovered America.” It would be more accurate, perhaps, to say that he introduced the Americas to Western Europe during his four voyages to the region between 1492 and 1502.
Detailed explanation-2: -The explorer Christopher Columbus made four trips across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain: in 1492, 1493, 1498 and 1502. He was determined to find a direct water route west from Europe to Asia, but he never did. Instead, he stumbled upon the Americas.
Detailed explanation-3: -In its earliest days, during the 1600s, American literature consisted mostly of practical nonfiction written by British settlers who populated the colonies that would become the United States. John Smith wrote histories of Virginia based on his experiences as an English explorer and a president of the Jamestown Colony.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Scarlet Letter. The poetry of Emily Dickinson. Uncle Tom’s Cabin. The Great Gatsby.
