The author provides valuable historical context, highlighting Italy's urgent need for expansion, the Ottoman Empire's history of exploitation in Libya, and growing international tensions in the region. The book explores the various justifications for Italy's military intervention, including accusations of Turkish atrocities against Italian settlers and ongoing obstruction of legitimate trade interests.
