Emperor and Corsair Capture to Algerias Coast
An early 18th century account details a voyage where Algerine corsairs seized ships near Cape St Vincent and Algiers. They forced crew aboard and confiscated cargo, while European powers pressured the Bey of Algiers to release vessels and crews. The narrative covers ship exchanges, ransom, and relief efforts, with references to notable figures and orders from Britain.
