History Alive leaves out the process about how they spotted land

# data[].attributes.body
History Alive leaves out information such as what Columbus wanted in exchange for going on the journey.  This is because what Columbus wanted made him seem really greedy. In addition, Zinn left out information about anything positive in Columbus’s journey. Such as when he gave small gifts to the Native American’s like beaded bracelets or necklaces. He left this out because this made Columbus seem generous and nice, which Zinn doesn’t want.

Zinn leaves out everything that was positive about Columbus’s journey, and writes very descriptively about the negative things but is able to make it seem like Columbus’s fault.
