Excerpt from Garibaldi and the Thousand 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 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.
