Garibaldi's Defence of the Roman Republic

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the Italian unification of the 19th century, this historical work by George Macaulay Trevelyan offers a unique perspective shaped by the author's emotional connection to the Italian patriots. As the first of three books about the national hero Giuseppe Garibaldi, it reflects Trevelyan's acknowledgment of his own biases, driven by a "poetical sympathy" for the era's revolutionary fervor. This rare English-language account provides an insightful look into the passions and motivations that fueled the movement for Italian unity.
