Over the centuries the islands of Malta have achieved great fame: as the scene of St. Paul's shipwreck and as the home of the fleets of the British Empire and the Knights of St. John. Few persons realize that Malta is one of the most densely populated parts of Europe and that the Maltese islanders provide a fascinating illustration of the way in which numerous island peoples react to the "nemeses of overpopulation", the "harsh necessity to emigrate abroad", and the dangers and difficulties of settlement and assimilation in new countries overseas. The purpose of this book is to show how the Maltese people and their British governors faced these problems during the critical years of the nineteenth century. **The book has light tanning. The jacket has many tiny/small tape-repaired tears and several small missing pieces.**. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 003264
