"""...an admirable piece of work. Besides giving us a vivid account of Garibaldi's successes and misfortunes, it supplies a dramatic picture of his personality. Mr. Hibbert's treatment of his subject, though never unsympathetic, is distinguised thorugh its realism and candour"" - Peter Quennell, author of Vladimir Nabokov: A Tribute ""Hibbert is a remarkably prolific popular historian, who can take on almost anything, from Dickens to General Wolfe, from Agincourt to Garibaldi"" -- The Observer ""A vivid biography of the hero of making modern Italy"" -- The Times"
