Rome in 1860 is a historical book written by Edward Dicey and first published in 1861. The book provides a detailed account of the city of Rome during a pivotal period in its history. In 1860, Rome was still under the control of the Papal States, but it was on the brink of being annexed by the newly-formed Kingdom of Italy. Dicey, an English journalist and writer, was living in Rome during this time and witnessed firsthand the political and social upheaval that accompanied this momentous event.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of life in Rome during this period. Dicey covers everything from the political maneuvering of the various factions involved in the annexation process to the everyday lives of the city's residents. He describes the architecture and layout of the city, the customs and traditions of its people, and the impact that the impending annexation had on the city's economy and society.Throughout the book, Dicey provides a vivid and engaging portrait of Rome in 1860. He draws on his own experiences and observations, as well as on historical sources and other accounts of the period, to create a comprehensive and nuanced picture of this fascinating city. Rome in 1860 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Italy, the Papal States, or the city of Rome itself.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
