The chapters 24 and 25 are nothing more than the original letters and
the translations, pretty much all the content we have seen. This is
it, that is about all we know about the Inventio Fortunata I am
afraid, you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip.

I will compile all these sites and quotes into a page probably
tomorrow and get it over into sci.arch.aux to join the new page on
Azores and Grand Banks.

I really looks like the loose ends to these modern myths are coming
to an end, all roads are leading back to a trinity of lost books and
unknowns. You can't hardly argue columbus knew about these if no-one
else seems to be able to do more than informally account for them.
