Home of the Renaissance and Baroque, Italy has always been a center of culture. In modern Italy, there is a strong pride in the cultural identity that characterizes Tuscany, Rome, Sicily, Venice and other regions. Summarizing the most important events of Italian history from the founding of Rome and the unification of the country to the realities of the Fascist regime in the first half of the twentieth century and on to the present day, respected British historian Jeremy Black explores the origins of Italian cultural influence on the world, as well as the causes and effects of political events and the divisions that still exist today. "This book is indispensable for those who are considering visiting Italy and yet want to know more about it than what can usually be read in concise travel guides. For many centuries Italy was fragmented and many parts of it belonged to large, rival powers - the Austrian and Spanish empires. Therefore, it does not have a unified centuries-long history like other countries (such as France), and writing a brief history of Italy is not easy. My account includes both the foundational events in chronological order and information about individual regions." Jeremy Black
