Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Tripoli the Mysterious
The Hercules, filled from stem to stern with Italian subjects, sailed next day; and, late on September 28, thirteen battleships came into the harbour, one after the other, in stately line, each proudly ?ying the Italian ?ag, and all brought into spectacular relief by brilliant 'african sunshine lighting the magnificent array with its level westering beams. The sight created a profound impression, not only upon native and Turkish inhabitants, but upon the few remaining Europeans as well.
