Excerpt from The Brown Alumni Monthly, Vol. 2: June, 1901 to May, 1902
Nicholas and his brother, John Carter Brown, who laid the foundations for a great collection of Americana. Taking as his definition of this term books printed in or relating to the history of the two Americas before the year 1801, Mr. John Carter Brown spared no pains or expense to gather into his library everything that was likely to throw light upon early American history. The starting point of such a collection must be the printed copies of the letter which Columbus wrote to notify the Spanish court Of his successful return from the voyage of discovery. This letter was immediately printed, in many editions.
