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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pierce Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46882549334167,"sku":"9781444640144","price":1939.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781444640144.webp?v=1770235321","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-story-of-the-barbary-corsairs-9781444640144","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
