The Adventures of Thomas Pellow of Penryn, Mariner: Three and Twenty Years in Captivity Among the Moors is a book written by Thomas Pellow, an English sailor who was captured by Barbary pirates and sold into slavery in Morocco in the late 17th century. The book, first published in 1890, details Pellow's experiences as a slave in North Africa, including his various owners, the harsh conditions he endured, and his eventual escape and return to England. The narrative provides a rare firsthand account of life in captivity among the Moors and sheds light on the complex history of European-African relations during the era of the Barbary pirates. The book is considered an important historical document and a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in the history of slavery and piracy in the Mediterranean.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
