Excerpt from Italy in North Africa, an Account of the Tripoli EnterpriseThis book is an attempt to give a reasonably full and fair account of the Tripoli enterprise.I have thought it unnecessary to burden the narrative of events with the details of my own experiences: the public must be weary of the stressed personal note. 'it seems enough to say that I arrived in Tripoli on November 19, 1911, and left on April 1, 1912 that during the nineteen weeks of my stay I was given all possible liberty of: move ment and investigation within the area occupied by the Italians, and that I availed myself fully of the freedom permitted. In describing those operations which took place outside the radius and-period of my own experience I have relied, in the first place, upon the private official reports of the Italian military authorities, and, in the second place, upon the accounts of numerous eyewitnesses and participants, given to me in writing or in conversation. That all errors in detail have been avoided is unlikely but I believe that in every case the general picture is substan tially correct.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
