Excerpt from The Life of Gen. Garibaldi

The world has heard the fame of Giuseppe Garibaldi, the distinguished soldier who nobly-fought for South American liberty, and gloriously defended Rome, in 1849: but few men have been acquainted with the details of his life, many of which we now present, written by his own pen. In the following pages will be found ample evidence of several facts highly interesting and instructive, as they prove the origin of his greatness to be a pure and noble heart, a character eminently humane and disinterested, and show that one object which he had in view in training his countrymen in South America to fight for freedom there, was, to prepare them for the service of the same cause in their native land, whenever the time should arrive.
