Columbus had to deal with the hardships of the weather, diseases that he could catch at any minute and other violent crew member’s. He went through nine of his ships being sunk and there were barely any food to go around and bad as it was the food was not properly sanitized for proper consumption(“what were some of Columbus's skill’s”). Lindbergh had many internal problems like one his son disappearing then showing up dead and he feared that he would have money problems throughout trying to achieve his goal.

One challenge that each of the men shared was getting over their fears. Even though each men had challenges they had to face their goals were met at the

As with any great expedition, there has always been a beginning and a goal in mind. Both the ventures of Christopher Columbus and Charles Lindbergh share this common trait, but include significantly different characteristics. With Columbus, the plan was to find an alternate route to Asia, but for Lindbergh’s flight, it revolved around creating the first successful transatlantic flight from New York to Paris. One of the plans involved establishing a better way to trade with other countries, while the other had a plan in mind to make history.

One idea seen throughout Phillip Roth’s, Goodbye, Columbus, is the connection between the little boy in the library and Neil Krugman. These characters share a direct link between them which goes unnoticed by Neil in the book. Neil looks at the boy and comments on his characteristics and traits but fails to see the underlying similarities between them. The main similarity is how both characters are searching for a greater purpose in their lives. Both the boy and Neil place themselves outside their general orbit.
In 1927, Charles A. Lindbergh the first person to successfully fly a plane across the Atlantic ocean. Also in that same year,

However, Columbus died in 1506, just a few years after discovering the New World; he died believing that he found a new route to the East Indies.
Life can be difficult, and people every day have to endure their own type of adversity, but adversity isn’t limited to just one problem but an array of difficulties. These problems can appear from many factors may it be a physical, mental, or social situation.
