Summary / Abstract (Note) | IN AUGUST and September 1799, the Sicilian port of Palermo hosted a visit from a Russian-British-Turkish fleet. As one historian said, there was "a forest of masts all over the Palermo harbor."1 The visit isn't really a historical landmark, nor is it a reason for anniversary celebrations. But amazingly, there is, as it were, a bridge between that event and the present day. |
