Synopsis

I Remember the Risorgimento, an historical novel tells Jessie White?s story of the first female journalist to cover Italy?s war for independence during the years 1854 to 1860. No shrinking violet, she?s a Victorian girl of twenty two who becomes a valued friend of Giuseppe Garibaldi, a favorite hero in the revolution. The danger of war, political intrigue, and a surprise romance takes her to Sicily before the battles with the French and Austrians. The author notes that names, places and events come from Jessie?s summary printed in the New Castle Daily Chronicle in 1861. This means reader, you might discover the family name of an ancestor who fought for Italy?s independence. Author?s license includes the dialog, ten percent of the characters and approximate timing of events to nudge the reader?s understanding of the material.
