Excerpt from Italy to-Day
We have attempted in this volume to give an accurate and fair account of political and social questions in Italy at the present day. It would be presumptuous for foreigners to describe the inner life and thought of another country, and this we have not tried to do. We have limited ourselves to the outward manifestations of that life, as they shape themselves in politics, in social movements, in literature. Here the foreigner starts with the advantage that he is, at all events, comparatively free from bias. We have approached the various problems without prepossessions, and we have done our best to understand and describe the point of view of each party. We have gone for our information to the men and literature of all sections - to Liberals and Catholics, to Socialists and Conservatives, to the leaders and the rank-and-file. It has been a pleasant task, not only because of the unfailing courtesy and lavish kindness of those whose help we sought, but because each further investigation has strengthened a faith in the future of Italy.
