In the summer of 1849, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Italy´s legendary revolutionary hero, fled Rome and led 4,000 of his men hundreds of miles through Umbria and Tuscany, then across the Apennines, Italy´s mountainous spine, toward the refuge of the Venetian Republic. After thirty-two exhausting days of skirmishes and adventures, only 250 survivors reached the Adriatic coast.
This hair-raising journey is brought vividly to life by bestselling author Tim Parks, who in the blazing summer of 2019, followed in Garibaldi´s footsteps. A fascinating portrait of Italy past and present, The Hero´s Way is a celebration of determination, creativity and desperate courage.
