Editor's Note:
Chipp Reid, author of Intrepid Sailors, continues to tell the story of the war against the Barbary Pirates of Tripoli, America’s first overseas war. To the Walls of Derne recounts the 1804 naval campaign to unseat the ruler of Tripoli, Yusuf Karamanli.Using a three-pronged approach, President Thomas Jefferson first ordered the most powerful U.S. naval squadron the world had yet seen to the Mediterranean to begin the attack on Karamanli. Under the command of Commodore Samuel Barron, the squadron included many of the same officers who had made Commodore Edward Preble’s summer campaign in 1804 a success. Barron, however, lacked Preble’s aggressive spirit and he also had to contend with a debilitating illness. Meanwhile, President Jefferson gave Consul General Tobias Lear carte blanche to broker a peace treaty with Tripoli. Complicating his mission were the more than 300 American captives who had fallen into corsair hands in 1803. Although Lear could ransom them, he had orders to pay as little as possible for a treaty.Against this backdrop, there was a dramatic and daring attempt to oust Yusuf and replace him with his pro-American brother, Hamet. The mission was the brainchild of soldier-turned-diplomat-turned adventurer William Eaton, would lead an epic march across the Libyan desert that culminated in what was the first-ever raising of the American flag over foreign soil and our young nation’s first attempt at regime change.Although all three men knew about one another’s missions, each wanted to be the one to end the war and reap the glory. As costs continued to escalate, and Congress became less willing to fund an overseas military expedition, the pressure to end the war became enormous. Jefferson, at first enthusiastic about Eaton’s mission, grew less and less supportive as time went on, even while Barron and Lear used the financial issues facing Eaton to advance their own solutions. With victory in his grasp, Eaton found himself in a high-stakes drama that would determine America’s place in the world, and set the direction for future overseas diplomatic and military missions, all the while shoring up the need for the U.S. Marine Corps.
