=TRIPOLI AND YOUNG ITALY.= By CHARLES LAPWORTH and HELEN ZIMMERN. Demy
8vo, cloth. Illustrated. Price 10s. 6d. net. A book of international
importance. This is the first systematic account of the Tripoli expedition
written from the Italian point of view which has yet been published in
Europe. Italy's case against Turkey is fully stated, and the annexation of
Tripoli, which has constantly been misrepresented by biassed critics as an
arbitrary and capricious act of rapacity on the part of the Italian
Government, is conclusively shown to have been an imperative political
necessity. The highest authorities in Italy have heartily assisted the
authors in their task of drawing up a reliable account of the inner
history of the Tripoli expedition and of vindicating Italy from the many
false accusations which have been levelled against her. The MSS. have been
submitted to the Italian Prime Minister as well as the Minister of Foreign
Affairs. The book is illustrated with portraits of leading Italians and
with photographs of Libya.
