Excerpt from The Life of Giuseppe Garibaldi When influenced for good, no character was more glorious than Garibaldi's. For example, throughout the Sicilian campaign his bark was guided over those troubled waters with Cavour at the helm. Cavour had to combat at that time the Massim'an I'dea, ' and for a while the two great political stars Of Italian freedom the Constitutionalist and the Republican - fought with occult weapons for the control over Garibaldi, who re presented the power. Eventually Cavour gained the day. And it was the proudest moment Of Garibaldi's life when he presented his constitutional sovereign with two crowns A word from Cavour could have arrested the expedi tion at its very outset, but he suffered it to proceed. A word from Cavour could have restored the Bourbom to Naples, and have roused all Europe against Garibaldi; but he determined otherwise, and then when he had used Garibaldi's power to the utmost limits, Cavour knew when to step in and prevent the rash folly with which Garibakfi would have marched on Rome and embroiled himself with France and Austria.

Excerpt from Life of Giuseppe Garibaldi: Italian Hero and Patriot The liberation of his country was the dream of Garibaldi's existence and long as was the exile which fate condemned him to pass in dreary yearnings for his native land, it was perhaps better for him and for Italy that he should have been spared the protracted apprenticeship to conspiracy and intrigue undergone by Mazzini and his friends. Our hero had not the soul of a conspirator. He could not have hung on the skirts of inaction, satisfied with a perpetual cycle of plots and projects, half-hearted insurrections and precipitate retreats. If Garibaldi had never gone to South America never left the company of his restless and injudicious fellow countrymen, he would in all probability have thrown himself, even single-handed, upon the swords of the Neapolitan or Austrian tyrants, and died on the battle field or in prison, leaving his name undistinguished and his task unfulfilled. It was indeed to his participation in the earlier attempts of Mazzini's disciples that Garibaldi owed his exile; but throughout his long absence from Italy he never forgot that his country was being crushed under the heel of an oppression scarcely credible in the present day; and he never ceased to cherish the hope that a time would come when he could return to the well-beloved land, and place himself at the head of her deliverers.

Excerpt from The Life of General Garibaldi: Translated From His Private Papers; With the History of His Splendid Exploits in Rome, Lombardy, Sicily and Naples, to the Present Time The succeeding pages are devoted to his services in Italy in the revolutions of 1849, 1859 and 1860; and a large proportion of their contents is occupied by his proclamations and other documents of his own, in translating which the same efforts have been made to render them correctly. The author has received assistance from some of the country men of Garibaldi in New York, for information not otherwise to be obtained, several of whom have been his fellow-soldiers. Many extracts have been taken from the most authentic and interesting descriptions, by intelligent eye-witnesses, of scenes in the two last campaigns in Italy. A personal acquaintance with Italy and Italians has enabled the writer to select, arrange, and explain the vast amount of materials presented by those most extraordinary seasons, in a manner perhaps best adapted for his readers. Some omissions were necessary, in composing a work of this kind, but nothing of essential importance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Garibaldi and the Thousand The present volume, 'Garibaldi and the Thousand, with its sequel on the Liberation of Naples which I hope to complete ere long, will together tell the story of Garibaldi's part in the decisive events of 1859-60 which 'made Italy.' His part in 1859 was entirely subordinate, and I have not exaggerated it in the early pages of this volume; 1859 was the year of Cavour and Napoleon III. But 1860 was the year of Cavour and Garibaldi, and it is that which forms the main theme of my work. Of the astonishing feats of 1860 I here relate the first part, when, landing with a thousand chosen men in plain clothes or in red shirts, armed with muskets fit for the scrap heap, the Liberator, with the aid of the Sicilian populace, took the capital of the island from 24,000 regular troops armed with rifles. The story of that month during which the little band was shut up in that strange island from the knowledge of the expectant world - the tale of those adventures which, though they are such stuff as schoolboys' dreams are made of, yet involved the whole fate of Italy - has a charm which will, I hope, justify in the eyes of the reader the detail in which it is here told. The later part of the campaign, after the fall of Palermo and the arrival of the larger expeditions to join Garibaldi, though not less interesting, is, both politically and militarily, of a different and wider character, and will be better treated in a separate volume.
