''Operations of the Mediterranean Squadron under Commodore Edward Preble, in 1803-1804'' is a historical account written by James Russell Soley in 1879. The book provides a detailed description of the naval operations carried out by the United States Mediterranean Squadron under the command of Commodore Edward Preble during the years 1803 and 1804. The main focus of the book is on the squadron’s efforts to combat piracy and protect American shipping in the Mediterranean region, particularly off the coast of North Africa. It also covers the political climate of the time, including the ongoing conflict between the United States and the Barbary States. The book is based on primary sources, including official reports, letters, and journals of the officers involved in the operations. It is a valuable resource for historians and scholars interested in the early history of the United States Navy and its role in international affairs during the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
