| Summary | "Cavour" by the Countess Evelyn Martinengo-Cesaresco is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the life of Camillo Cavour, a pivotal figure in the unification of Italy, examining both his personal background and his political endeavors. The narrative likely covers Cavour's experiences, strategies, and relationships that shaped not only his own life but also the course of Italian history during a time of significant political upheaval. The opening of the book sets the stage by discussing the influences of heredity and environment on Cavour's character and ambitions. It describes his noble lineage, particularly the Benso family, as well as the societal context of 19th-century Italy characterized by a struggle for resolution, independence, and unity. Highlights include Cavour's early education, personality traits, and formative relationships, particularly with family members who shaped his worldview. The narrative underscores the challenges Italy faced from foreign powers, particularly Austria, and hints at Cavour's emerging role as a reform-minded liberal who would champion the cause of Italian independence and unity.
