"Re-examines Columbus' diary to determine native guides' role in tracing route followed in the first inter-island reconnaissance. Concludes that Columbus depended on Arawak navigational knowledge, as Columbus himself states in his diary, and that his journal entries regarding his wanderings are accurate. Based on this understanding and corroborating it through other sources, Szaszdi argues that Martín Alonso Pinzón 'discovered' Puerto Rico (which Columbus called Baneque in the journal) when the Pinta became separated from the other two ships"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
