From the Napoleonic Wars that preceded them to the way the Wars have been commemorated and memorialized in recent times, the book refreshingly reintroduces Italian agency as a central factor in the military history of Italian unification. In this sense, it offers an Italian perspective interwoven within larger continental interests: the Wars of Italian Unification are explored as both a European event and a conflict among Italian states and their people. This innovative structure enables you to understand the complex and dual nature of the history of the \u003ci\u003eRisorgimento\u003c\/i\u003e, the movement for Italian Unification, as well as the nuances of the military struggles at the heart of this text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on a great deal of material from Italian army archives and other Italian sources, while integrating many non-Italian sources, \u003ci\u003eThe Wars of Italian Unification\u003c\/i\u003e is key reading for anyone wanting to understand the history of modern Italy or the military history of modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFrederick C.
