Teenagers

 

Emilio Salgari (1862-1911)

Born in Verona in August 1862, his only direct experience of the sea consisted in one voyage in the Adriatic which lasted three months: but in his imaginary itineraries, he would lead readers in adventures around the world. In 1883 he began contributing to a Verona newspaper "La Tigre della Malesia". In 1898 he began a new series on pirates, this time of Western extraction, with "Il Corsaro Nero". In 1900 the book "Le Tigri di Mompracem" was published.
