One of my favorite books growing up was "The Velvet Doublet" by James Street. It vividly describes the meaness and arrogance of Columbus and how it all fit in to the terror wreaked by the Roman Catholic Church on Spanish Jews and Moors.

Oh, boo hoo. Don't believe every fairy tale you read as a kid. When it comes to "wreaking terror," the Moors certainly gave as good as they got.
