520    In British Captives from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic,
       1563-1760, Nabil Matar furnishes a list of the names of 
       all captives in the British archive and presents a 
       chronological study of the historical and social 
       background of British captivity. 
520 0  "British Captives from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic, 
       1563-1760 provides the first study of British captives in 
       the North African Atlantic and Mediterranean, from the 
       reign of Elizabeth I to George II. Based on extensive 
       archival research in the United Kingdom, Nabil Matar 
       furnishes the names of all captives while examining the 
       problems that historians face in determining the numbers 
       of early modern Britons in captivity. Matar also describes
       the roles which the monarchy, parliament, trading 
       companies, and churches played (or did not play) in 
       ransoming captives. He questions the emphasis on religious
       polarization in piracy and shows how much financial 
       constraints, royal indifference, and corruption delayed 
       the return of captives. As rivarly between Britain and 
       France from 1688 on dominated the western Mediterranean 
       and Atlantic, Matar concludes by showing how captives 
       became the casus belli that justified European expansion"-
