The Barbary Corsairs were a group of pirates that operated out of the northern African ports of Salé, Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli during the Sixteenth century. This book offers a fascinating insight into the endeavours of these infamous privateers, and is highly recommended for those with an interest in the subject. Contents include: The Revenge of The Moors, The Land of the Corsairs, The Corsair Admirals, Uruk Barbarossa. 1504-1515, The Taking of Algiers: 1516-1518, Kheyr-Ed-Din Barbarossa: 1518-1530, The Ottoman Navy: 1470-1522, The Petty Pirates, The Abasement of Europe: 16th to 18th Centuries, etcetera. Edward William Lane (1801 - 1876) was a British translator, lexicographer, and orientalist. He is most famous for his translation of One Thousand and One Nights. Many antiquarian texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
