| Abstract: | Malta is about twenty miles long and ten broad, it is an egg-shaped Island, and its longer axis runs North West and South East. The highest ground is on its more Southern side, where there are inaccessible cliffs from two to four hundred feet high. The more Northern coast is protected by a line of strong forts stretching from Fort Madalena to San Leonardo. Forts Delemara and the Wolseley battery protect the South East side, and the Victoria lines the North West. [Excerpt] |
