Abstract :Due to the dearth of personal narratJves and the lack of prJntJng press Jn the Ottoman EmpJre, Jt Js extremely dJffJcult to reconstruct the lJves of Ottoman grandees. EmJlJo Sola’s UchalÓ Js extremely valuable Jn thJs regard, because Jt provJdes mJnute detaJls on the lJfe of enJgmatJc Ottoman Grand AdmJral, Uluc AlJ, a.k.a. DJonJsJo Galea, a CalabrJan renegade whose unfortunate capture by corsaJrs when he was a young boy paved the way for an exceptJonal success story Jn MedJterranean borderlands. QuJckly rJsJng through corsaJr ranks, thJs son of a poor fJsherman would fJrst be Governor-General of TrJpolJtanJa, then of AlgerJa, reachJng the zenJth of Ottoman naval establJshment wJth hJs appoJntment as the Kapudan Paůa Jn 1572.
