Excerpt from The War for the Union
Here it is appropriate to say that although the New World was discovered by Columbus, or, - in view of the much earlier voyages of the Norsemen to America, - more strictly speaking, te-discovered by him on his first voyage in the service of Spain, when he reached the West India islands, the credit of the first subsequent discovery of the Continent of America is due to the Cabots on their voyage of exploration from Bristol in England. It was later ou his second voyage - that Columbus discovered the mainland.
Hence it is fitting and just that corresponding credit should be given to the Cabots and to Eng land for their part in the discovery of America, notwithstanding that they made no settlements in America, as a result of this and other British exploring voyages.
