dc.description.abstractIn 1800 following the surrender of the French the British entered Valletta and they appointed a Civil Commissioner, Captain Alexander Ball R.N., to reorganise the administration of the Island. As one of his tasks he set about improving the postal communications within the Island and the other Mediterranean countries. The result was that the delivery of letters became more regular, and indeed round about 1806 a packet service was established operating between Malta, Gibraltar, Faro, Lisbon and London.
