The proclamation of a single Italian state, the Kingdom of Italy, in March 1861 became an epochal event in the history of Europe. The first government of Italy was headed by Count Camillo di Cavour. This man played an exceptional role in the annals of the country and in the Risorgimento movement. Count Cavour lived only fifty years, but in such a short period of time he became a symbol of the era and did the incredible - he created a new country. A contemporary of those events, the Prime Minister of Great Britain Henry Palmerston said that "Italy, present and future, will look upon him as one of the greatest patriots who ever graced the history of any nation. I know of no country that owes so much to its sons as Italy owes to him." This book is the first detailed biography in Russian of the great Italian statesman, whom the outstanding composer Giuseppe Verdi called "the Prometheus of our national movement."
