Tripoli: First War With The United States is a historical account of the first war fought by the United States against a foreign power, Tripoli, in 1801. The book is authored by James Leander Cathcart, a former American diplomat who was held captive in Tripoli for many years. The book details the events leading up to the war, including the piracy and extortion of American ships by the Barbary states, and the negotiations between the United States and Tripoli. The book also describes the battles fought by the United States Navy and the heroic deeds of individuals such as Stephen Decatur and William Eaton. The book provides a fascinating look into the early history of the United States and its struggles to establish itself as a world power.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
