| Abstract: | The two eventful years in the history of Malta, namely 1798 to 1800 covering the end of the rule of the Order of St. John and the French occupation of these islands, were well represented in the British Press. However it seems best to commence this documentary account by going back a few years, to be precise to the 21st. January 1793 where in the "Place de la Revolution" now the "Place de la Concorde" in Paris, the unfortunate King Louis XVI of France was guillotined. |
