The Italian Wars of Independence were a sequence of three separate conflicts, taking place in 1848-49, 1859 and 1866. This volume examines the role of the major powers outside Italy in these conflicts, particularly France, Austria, Great Britain and Prussia, and in Italy the Italian states, the Catholic Church and the revolutionaries. It also examines the role of: Cavour''s Piedmont, Mazzini''s Young Italy and the Party of Action, Garibaldi''s Red Shirts and Daniele Manin''s National Society.
