Book excerpt: Excerpt from Italy and the Italians, Vol. 1 of 2 The following pages contain nothing like a com plete account of the country visited; they merely touch upon certain subjects, to which attention has been hitherto but little directed. My communica tions, therefore, are merely an appendix to more detailed accounts, and even within their own sphere do not pretend to approach completeness. On the other hand, through the favour of individuals in authority, and through the friendly co-operation of many well-informed men (ambassadors, public func tionaries, scholars, 8m.) I have collected, within a short period, more remarkable and authentic facts than it would have been possible to do under less favourable circumstances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Italians, Vol. 2 of 2 The road from Lucca to Corellia lies at the foot of lofty mountains, overmantled by chestnut forests, and cleft asunder by the river Serchio - the broad wilful Serchio, sprung from the flanks of virgin fastnesses. In its course a thousand valleys open up, scoring the banks. Each valley has its tributary stream, down which, even in the dog-days, cool breezes rustle. The lower hills lying warm towards the south, and the broad grassy lands by the river, are trellised with vines. Some fling their branches in wild festoons on mulberry or aspen-trees. Some trained in long arbours are held up by pillars of unbarked wood; others trail upon the earth in delicious luxuriance. The white and purple grapes peep from the already shrivelled leaves, or hang in rich masses on the brown earth. It is the vintage. The peasants, busy as bees, swarm on the hill-sides; the women pluck the fruit; the men bear it away in wooden measures.

This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dawn of Italian Independence, Vol. 2 of 2: Italy From the Congress of Vienna, 1814, to the Fall of Venice, 1849 Gregory XVI died on June 1, and though the public was at first surprised, having had no intimation that his end was so near, it speedily rejoiced. The news flew over the Peninsula, bringing a sense of relief to all the inbah itants of the Papal States, and awakening elsewhere the liveliest hopes. If any persons grieved, they grieved be cause they feared that the offices they had held under Gregory would be taken from them, and not because they loved him. The Liberals of every shade, who had de clared that the rule of the Turks would be less abomina ble than that which they had endured, now thanked God that their taskmaster was dead. For years the belief had been growing that Gregory's death would not only be a turning-point in their misery, but also the dawn of a new era for Italy: and now, as they mingled their mutual congratulations, they speculated as to the strength of the parties in the Sacred College, and as to the policy which each of the favorite candidates would probably pursue were he given the tiara.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Italy Revisited, Vol. 1 of 2 The independence of Italy was built on the world's sympathy - on the estimate civilized nations formed of her fitness for self-government. Forty years ago it was important to show that if the Italians were bent on being their own masters, credit might be given them for sense to wish for what best suited them, as well as for determination to obtain what they wished. Such was at that time my theme. Now it is done. The Italians have not conquered the Austrians or the French, but they have turned them out; they have not turned out the Pope, but they have conquered him - in both cases obtaining what was most expedient; for they have rid themselves of the foreigner without incurring his enmity, and they have deprived the Pope of power without throwing him on the foreigner's mercies.

Download or read book History of Napoleon Vol 2 of 2 Classic Reprint written by George Moir Bussey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Napoleon, Vol. 2 of 2 On the same day, a deputation from the kingdom of Italy waited upon the Sovereign, to unite its felicitations with those of the empire. Napoleon seemed to have become an object of adoration to all those who, by their relation to him or his government, were in any way participators of his glory. He alone was the same man as formerly, and remained undazzled by the splendour which invested his person and name. His reply to his Italian subjects has less of pomp or assumption than many of the proclamations published when he was merely General-in-chief of the Army of Italy. I experienced pe culiar satisfaction, he said, in the course of the last campaign, in Witnessing the excellent conduct of my Italian troops. For the first time, after many ages, the Italians have won renown in the great theatre of the world. I hope that this happy commencement will excite the emulation of the nation, - that the maidens of my good kingdom, when they choose husbands, will distinguish between youths who lounge away their days in the boudoir, and those who are marked with honourable scars obtained in the service of their country. You may inform my people, on your return, that I intend shortly to make a tour of my Italian dominions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
