La pesca dei tonni. Racconto illustrato
by Salgari Emilio
The volume contains a reprint of a short story by Emilio Salgari, published for the first time in 1904 under the pseudonym Enrico Bertolini and reprinted in 1937 under the real name Emilio Salgari. \’La pesca dei tonni. Illustrated story\’ is set in Alghero and the Catalan city recalls the natural beauty, the costumes and the beauty of women, as well as the bloody ritual of tuna fishing, as it is still practiced today in the south of Sardinia. The traces of this story were almost lost and the small volume contains both editions, the second with some variations on the first. It is enriched by a critical essay by the Salgarian Alberto Contu and a preface by Massimiliano Fois.
