«Et l'Amérique découvrit Christophe Colomb» is the historical essay by Jean Ollivier, published in 1991 by Messidor-La Farandole (123 pages, in French).
A work of historical popularisation that reverses the traditional perspective: America discovers Christopher Columbus and the Spanish conquerors. It covers from 1492 to 1598 the conquest and colonisation of the continent, and highlights the destructive impact on indigenous peoples and the decline of the Aztec, Maya and Inca civilisations.
A work for readers interested in the history of the conquest of America and in the perspective of the Amerindian civilisations.
French journalist and screenwriter (1925–2005)
