[53]-56pp. Folded folio sheet. Lightly foxed; small tear at bottom edge. About very good. Letter from the deposed Pasha (or Bashaw) of Tripoli to President Thomas Jefferson, written from his exile in Syracuse, in Sicily. The former Pasha describes the tribulations he has suffered since his exile eleven years previous - deprived of family, possessions and country - and asks that the president render him due justice. Hamet Karamanli Pasha was deposed by his brother, Yusuf, who later demanded tribute from the United States, which President Jefferson refused to pay, thus initiating the Barbary Wars in 1801. We can find no bibliographic citation for this item, though the text does appear in THE BALANCE AND COLUMBIAN REPOSITORY for 1806, and in the STATE PAPERS AND PUBLICK DOCUMENTS (second edition; Boston, 1817). This would appear to be its earliest, unrecorded, printing. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers WRCAM43337
