Book THE PIRATES OF THE AEGEAN

The book is the historical adventure novel "The Pirates of the Aegean" (original French title: L'Archipel en feu, 1884), written by the famous French author Jules Verne.
The story unfolds during the Greek Revolution of 1821, specifically around 1827, just before the historic naval battle of Navarino.
The work is a great hymn to Philhellenism and the heroism of the Greek sea fighters. The story follows the French naval officer, Henri d'Albaré, who comes to Greece to fight alongside the Greeks. There he faces the ruthless pirate Nikolaos Starkos, who exploits the war to plunder the islands and sell captives.
This is a classic, vintage edition, with 220 pages measuring 21x15 cm, without notes and with an excellent cover and excellent hardcover artistic binding and quite good dust jacket. Price 15 euros.
