It was 1921 when the Vatican Apostolic Library managed to acquire a very valuable copy of a letter written by Christopher Columbus back in 1493.

All of the evangelists, he said, narrate his public life that they say spanned about three years. It is striking, he said, that the Lord spent most of his time on earth living an ordinary life, without standing out.
