Mystery Solved!!

Postcard mailed in 1902. Where is this? (The card has been trimmed.)

Thanks to my friend Tom Flamson for knowing that this postcard is of Le Rocher/The Rock in Monaco. That does explain the Monaco postmark on the back. Now I just have to figure out what its significance is to the lives of Frank and Annie Howard (someone mailed it to Frank Howard in 1902, but he was in Europe at that point, so wouldn't have gotten it right away.)

Traveled Widely? Help me solve a mystery! Postcard mailed in 1902. Where is this? (The card has been trimmed.)

The Muslim Bonaparte, Please. someone, somewhere... has a copy of Katherine E. Fleming's 1999 book The Muslim Bonaparte: Diplomacy and Orientalism in Ali Pasha's Greece for less than $100. (Some copies are $500.) I don't care what kind of condition it's in. Seriously. Help??
