Summary "Quatre mois de l'expédition de Garibaldi en Sicilie et Italie" by H. Durand-Brager is a historical account written during the mid-19th century. The book chronicles the significant events surrounding Garibaldi's military campaign in Sicily and Italy, highlighting the political and social climate of the time, along with the perceptions of Garibaldi and his volunteers, who are viewed by some as heroes and by others as marauders. The opening of the narrative establishes a scene on May 11 in the small coastal town of Marsala, providing a detailed description of the town's geography and recent history. As two unidentified steamships approach the harbor, locals speculate about their purpose while Garibaldi's men prepare to land. A building tension marks the atmosphere, as the citizens remain unaware of the impending arrival of the revolutionary forces. The arrival of Garibaldi’s troops results in a chaotic yet significant moment, marked by a mix of excitement and fear among the townsfolk, who eventually witness the unfolding of a revolutionary movement that would alter the course of their history.
