A First Edition of a second volume from a two volume set.</p><p>First edition. Jardine died. 1799 a Royal Artillery officer was for much of his career stationed in Gibraltar from where he conducted a mission to the sultan of Morocco Muhammad III in 1771; after the end of his active military career in 1776 he became a British agent in Spain. His Letters are "notable for their defence of sexual equality" ODNB which Jardine based on the profitable intermingling of the sexes which he observed on his travels: Jardine was a friend of William Godwin's and his book was read by Mary Wollstonecraft who reviewed it favorably in the fourth volume of the Analytical in 1789 O'Neill The Burke-Wollstonecraft Debate p. 116.

J.</p><p>Barbaria by Jan Janssonius shows the coast of North Africa an area known in the 17th century as Barbaria c. 1650</p><p>The Barbary pirates Barbary corsairs or Ottoman corsairs were mainly Muslim pirates and privateers who operated from the Barbary states. This area was known in Europe as the Barbary Coast in reference to the Berbers. The main purpose of their attacks was to capture slaves for the Barbary slave trade. Slaves in Barbary could be of many ethnicities and of many different religions such as Christian Jewish or Muslim. Their predation extended throughout the Mediterranean south along West Africa's Atlantic seaboard and into the North Atlantic as far north as Iceland but they primarily operated in the western Mediterranean. In addition to seizing merchant ships they engaged in razzias raids on European coastal towns and villages mainly in Italy France Spain and Portugal but also in the British Isles the Netherlands and Iceland.</p><p>An action between an English ship and vessels of the Barbary Corsairs</p><p>While such raids began after the Muslim conquest of the Iberian Peninsula in the 710s the terms "Barbary pirates" and "Barbary corsairs" are normally applied to the raiders active from the 16th century onwards when the frequency and range of the slavers' attacks increased. In that period Algiers Tunis and Tripoli came under the sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire either as directly administered provinces or as autonomous dependencies known as the Barbary states. Similar raids were undertaken from Salé and other ports in Morocco.</p><p>A Sea Fight with Barbary Corsairs by Laureys a Castro c. 1681</p><p><strong> Background:</strong> The Barbary corsairs were pirates and privateers who operated out of North Africa based primarily in the ports of Tunis Tripoli and Algiers. This area was known in Europe as the Barbary Coast in reference to the Berbers. Their predation extended throughout the Mediterranean south along West Africa's Atlantic seaboard and even to the eastern coast of South America with Brazil and into the North Atlantic Ocean as far north as Iceland but they primarily operated in the western Mediterranean. In addition to seizing ships they engaged in raids on European coastal towns and villages mainly in Italy France Spain and Portugal but also in England Scotland the Netherlands Ireland and as far away as Iceland. The main purpose of their attacks was to capture Europeans for the slave market in North Africa. The Barbary states were nominally part of the Ottoman Empire but in practice they were independent and the Ottoman government in Constantinople was not involved. Attacks:Since the 1600s the Barbary pirates had attacked British shipping along the North Coast of Africa holding captives for ransom or enslaving them. Ransoms were generally raised by families and local church groups. The British became familiar with captivity narratives written by Barbary pirates' prisoners and slaves. During the American Revolutionary War the pirates attacked American ships. On December 20 1777 Morocco's sultan Mohammed III declared that merchant ships of the new American nation would be under the protection of the sultanate and could thus enjoy safe passage into the Mediterranean and along the coast. The Moroccan-American Treaty of Friendship stands as America's oldest unbroken friendship treaty with a foreign power. In 1787 Morocco became one of the first nations to recognize the United States of America. Starting in the 1780s realizing that American vessels were no longer under the protection of the British navy the Barbary pirates had started seizing American ships in the Mediterranean. As the U.S. had disbanded its Continental Navy and had no seagoing military force its government agreed in 1786 to pay tribute to stop the attacks. On March 20 1794 at the urging of President George Washington Congress voted to authorize the building of six heavy frigates and establish the United States Navy in order to stop these attacks and demands for more and more money. The United States had signed treaties with all of the Barbary states after its independence was recognized between 1786 and 1794 to pay tribute in exchange for leaving American merchantmen alone and by 1797 the United States had paid out $1.25 million or a fifth of the government's annual budget then in tribute. These demands for tribute had imposed a heavy financial drain and by 1799 the U.S. was in arrears of $140000 to Algiers and some $150000 to Tripoli. Many Americans resented these payments arguing that the money would be better spent on a navy that would protect American ships from the attacks of the Barbary pirates and in the 1800 Presidential Election Thomas Jefferson won against incumbent second President John Adams in part by noting that the United States was "subjected to the spoliations of foreign cruisers" and was humiliated by paying "an enormous tribute to the petty tyrant of Algiers".</p> T Cadell. hardcover
