Bombardment of Tangier, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Bombardment of Tangier, 1844. The French navy attacking the coast of North Africa. A correspondent of the time wrote: I send you by packet, thinking it may be useful for your valuable journal, a view of Tangier Bay, with the French ships taking up a position in the Bay, preparatory to their bombarding the town. The French force here now consists of three line-of-battle ships, one frigate, and six steamers. Prince de Joinville has his flag flying on board the Suffren, of 90 guns. They have on board about 2000 soldiers. The town...is in a dilapidated state, and a frigate would take the place easily, though the French are making a formidable appearance. Tangier is now being pillaged by the different tribes coming from the country, and, altogether, the town is in a wretched state, the Pacha not being able to keep them down. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V
