Columbus (novel)
''Columbus'' is a romantic adventure novel by the British writer Rafael Sabatini which was first published in 1941. It depicts the life of Christopher Columbus at the Spanish court, his voyages across the Atlantic Ocean in which he discovered the Americas and his relationship with the mother of his second son Beatriz Enríquez de Arana, who he never married.
Sabatini had originally been commissioned to write a screenplay for a planned film of Columbus around 1939. The project was continually delayed, and in 1941 Sabatini published his story as a novel instead.〔Spicer p.126-127〕 The story is in the style of his previous works ''Captain Blood'' and ''The Sea Hawk'', which had already been adapted into hit films, and portrayed Columbus as a swashbuckler.

It was produced by Sydney Box and made in technicolour with the American actor Fredric March cast as Columbus. Box was unhappy with Sabatini's script, which he considered historically inaccurate and overly romantic.〔Murphy p.130-131〕 Box and his wife Muriel Box extensively rewrote the screenplay aiming at greater realism at the expense of Sabatini's swashbuckling style. On its release the film was poorly received by critics, and had limited success at the box office.
