I took a college class 15 years ago and I’m interested in fact checking a few points I learned about Christopher Columbus and his treatment of the natives he discovered in now USA. 1) he has a journal available somewhere detailing his treatment of the natives, 2) he/his men rode pregnant women like horses for amusement, 3) he/his men cut off the breasts of women and made them into balls for games.

Please note these represent a few incredibly awful stories from a credible professor and I’m interested in learning more and fact checking. Are these accurate and what’s the best/easy resource to learn more?

Thanks in advance for your time!
