Carthage and Tunis

"Carthage and Tunis: Past and Present" offers a detailed exploration of the historical and contemporary significance of these North African cities in the mid-19th century. In two parts, Amos Perry recounts the rich history of Carthage, from its founding by the Phoenicians to its destruction by the Romans, and contrasts it with the vibrant life of Tunis as it existed in the 1860s.

Perry's account blends historical narrative with vivid descriptions of the Tunisian landscape, architecture, and culture. This work provides valuable insights into the region's enduring legacy, making it essential reading for historians, travelers, and anyone interested in the interplay between the past and present in North Africa.
