Mussolini

The Mussolini who emerges from Denis Mack Smith's political biography is the supreme opportunist, more actor than statesman, with policies shaped chiefly by events.

"Guiseppe Garibaldi was praised for his military genius, his courage, and his charisma. Known as the "Hero of Two Worlds," Garibaldi's military prowess extended to the Americas, where he played a major role in the Brazilian struggle for independence. During his fight for Italian unification, Garibaldi personally led an army of local untrained rebels to victory in Palermo, Naples, and Sicily. His forces suffered from lack of equipment, food, and money, and yet Garibaldi commended their fierce loyalty. In this riveting biography, Christopher Hibbert reveals how this iconic figure earned the adulation of not only his fellow Italians, but people across the globe."--BOOK JACKET.
