Book Description
Excerpt from Italy and the Italians, Vol. 2 of 2 The house of Austria is in general represented as having an inordinate inclination to keep things just as they are, nay to stand stock-still, or even to go backward instead of forward. And yet the very reverse of all this might be proved. The great changes which the world hailed with such loud applause when they made their appearance among our western neighbours had been set on foot much earlier in all the main points by Austrian sovereigns.

Book Description
Excerpt from Italy of the Italians Since that memorable year, 1870, Italy has, happily, ceased to be a geographical expression, as Prince Metternich contemptuously phrased it. Nevertheless, though thousands of travellers over-run her fair borders in the course of each year, in ever increasing numbers, to the greater proportion she still remains little else than a geographical expression, and'her citizens are regarded either as the staffage to a lovely landscape or as the custodians of her artistic treasures. These travellers, too, seldom know the language of the land and hence are apt to get their information from guides, hotel porters, cabmen, and others the like. As a result they may see towns and museums but they get little or no idea of Italy's real life and civilization. Few stop even to wonder what are the impulses, the aims, the hopes, the ambitions that cause the heart of this land to pulsate with energy, that virtue on which her greatest poet, Dante, laid such stress. Few enquire what is her present position in the world of European thought. What she gave us in the past, how, together with Greece, we owe her all our culture, is familiar enough. Less familiar, on the other hand, is her contribution to the modern move ment, her bequest to the fabrics of contemporary science, art, literature, and philosophy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Italy and the Italians, Vol. 1 of 2 The following pages contain nothing like a com plete account of the country visited; they merely touch upon certain subjects, to which attention has been hitherto but little directed. My communica tions, therefore, are merely an appendix to more detailed accounts, and even within their own sphere do not pretend to approach completeness. On the other hand, through the favour of individuals in authority, and through the friendly co-operation of many well-informed men (ambassadors, public func tionaries, scholars, 8m.) I have collected, within a short period, more remarkable and authentic facts than it would have been possible to do under less favourable circumstances.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Italians of to-Day The cordial reception given by the Press and the reading public generally to My Italian Year leads me to believe that some further description of Italian life may not, perhaps, be unwelcome even to the perusers of that volume, and also, possibly, to that larger British public which is not always in a position to provide itself with books of the kind. It is, indeed, to this larger public that I dedicate the following pages, and this not for the sake of popularity hunting, but from an earnest desire to add to my many efforts to contribute to a better and more intimate understanding of modern Italy and her people than at present obtains among the mass of my compatriots.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Cart of Many Colors a Story of Italy Dear Schoolmate: - There is no need to ask you why we have an Italian story in the Schoolmate Books. I can already hear you saying: "Because an Italian discovered America, - Christopher Columbus, a Genoese, in 1492. And also because America takes its name from another Italian, - Amerigo Vespucci, a Florentine, who followed Columbus across the ocean in 1499." Yes; you know your lesson very well. These are surely the best of reasons for having an Italian story in our series. But they are not the only ones. Columbus and Vespucci are not the only Italians who ever discovered America.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Italian in America The design of "The Italian in America" is to present clearly the contribution of Italy to American development and citizenship. The work is one of a series reviewing the influx of the various racial strains and nationalities that are making up the composite American. The authors have in view simply the recital of facts for impartial consideration, for no concern of this country is more momentous and urgent than the national dealing with the problems of immigration, congestion, distribution and education for American standards of living and citizenship. To exclude what is essentially bad or unfusible from any source - to welcome and utilize what is essentially good and helpful, even if yet imperfectly developed, is in the judgment of the authors the true American policy.
