The book gives a clear-eyed view of the Risorgimento, the pivotal event in modern Italian history, debunking the influential myths which have grown up around it.  Gilmour shows that the glory of Italy has always lain in its regions, with their distinctive art, civic cultures, identities and cuisine and whose inhabitants identified themselves not as Italians, but as Tuscans and Venetians, Sicilians and Lombards, Neapolitans and Genoese. This is where the strength and culture of Italy still comes from, rather than from misconceived and mishandled concepts of nationalism and unity. This wise and enormously engaging book explains the course of Italian history in a manner and with a coherence which no one with an interest in the country could fail to enjoy.  David Gilmour is one of Britain's most admired and accomplished historical writers and biographers. His previous books include The Last Leopard : A Life of Giuseppe di Lampedusa (winner of the Marsh Biography Award) Curzon (Duff Cooper Prize) and Long Recessional:The Imperial Life of Rudyard Kipling (Elizabeth Longford Prize for Historical Biography).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49504142721297,"sku":"GOR004174706","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49637822693649,"sku":"GOR004265123","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49728720306449,"sku":"NGR9780141043418","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49931792351505,"sku":"GOR005295006","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50345513222417,"sku":"CIN0141043415A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50432241926417,"sku":"GOR007690485","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50671073952017,"sku":"CIN0141043415VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52102978371857,"sku":"CIN0141043415G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52330786914577,"sku":"NLS9780141043418","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0141043415.jpg?v=1751441973"},{"product_id":"curzon-book-david-gilmour-9780719548345","title":"Curzon","description":"George Nathaniel Curzon was one of the most talented, colourful and controversial of British statesmen. Viceroy of India under Queen Victoria and Foreign Secretary under George V, his career stretched from the high noon of Empire to the traumatized Britain of the 1920s. Brilliant, obsessive, tempestuous and - in the words of the notorious rhyme - superior, Curzon left his unmistakable mark on the era. His astonishing energy made him the most travelled minister who ever sat in a British Cabinet, the writer of immense volumes on Asia, the compulsive restorer of ancient buildings in Britain and India. His character inspired both adoration and dislike, his work both admiration and disparagement. In his lifetime he was often seen as arrogant and pompous; after his death his reputation was savaged unscrupulously by Beaverbrook and others. In this book, the first full biography since the official Life was published in the 1920s, David Gilmour investigates the anecdotes and accusations that have turned this magnetic and contradictory figure into something of a caricature.  Five years of research into more than seventy archival collections, including the 1,400 files and boxes of the Curzon Papers, have enabled him to produce a rounded, credible and above all human portrait of a man of many sides and interests. Emphasis is placed particularly on the importance of his personal relationships, the long vendettas, the turbulent friendships and the passionate love affairs which complicated and enriched his life. And in the background of the portrait contemporary figures such as Balfour, Kitchener and Morley emerge in a new and sometimes doubtful light. The book has won the Duff Cooper Prize.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49510386532625,"sku":"GOR003350629","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50955663114513,"sku":"GOR006983365","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50993274978577,"sku":"GOR001562583","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0719548349.jpg?v=1751394250"},{"product_id":"british-in-india-book-david-gilmour-9780241004524","title":"The British in India","description":"A SUNDAY TIMES, THE TIMES, SPECTATOR, NEW STATESMAN, TLS BOOK OF THE YEAR  The British in this book lived in India from shortly after the reign of Elizabeth I until well into the reign of Elizabeth II.

In its time, the Indian Civil Service was regarded as efficient, benevolent and incorruptible, but revisionist historians have recently questioned its competence and derided its altruism.  In this absorbing, extensively researched new book, David Gilmour traces the lives of its officials, from recruitment to retirement, from jungle to Government House, from a bungalow in Burma to a residency in Rajputana. He describes their work and their leisure, their intellectual and their private lives. The result is a portrait more varied and complicated than that painted by their old admirers, and yet fairer and subtler than those routinely produced by their post-colonial detractors.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49516948619537,"sku":"GOR001693952","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49631931793681,"sku":"GOR001990608","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49652758118673,"sku":"GOR003615527","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49730502983953,"sku":"NGR9780712665650","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50268950593809,"sku":"GOR010066719","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/071266565X.jpg?v=1750944547"},{"product_id":"long-recessional-book-david-gilmour-9780712665186","title":"The Long Recessional","description":"Rudyard Kipling was a unique figure in British history, a great writer and a great imperial icon. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature, he added more phrases to the language than any man since Shakespeare, yet he was also the Apostle of the British Empire, a man who incarnated an era for millions of people who did not normally read poetry. A child of the Victorian age of imperial self-confidence, Kipling lived to see the rise of Hitler threaten his country's existence. The laureate of the Empire at its apogee, he foresaw that its demise would soon follow his death. His great poem 'Recessional' celebrated Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897; his last poems warned of the dangers of Nazism. The trajectory of his life matched the trajectory of the British Empire from its zenith to its final decades. He himself was transformed from the apostle of success to the prophet of national decline, a Cassandra warning of dangers that successive governments refused to face.  Previous works on Kipling have focused on his writing and on his domestic life. This is the first book to study his public role, his influence on the way Britons saw both themselves and their Empire. Based on extensive research in Britain and in the under-explored archives of the United States, David Gilmour has produced a brilliantly illuminating study of a man who embodied the spirit of his country a hundred years ago as closely as Shakespeare had done 300 years before.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49517568327953,"sku":"GOR002591606","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49616838951185,"sku":"GOR005106755","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0712665188.jpg?v=1767094095"},{"product_id":"british-in-india-book-david-gilmour-9780141979212","title":"The British in India","description":"A SUNDAY TIMES, THE TIMES, SPECTATOR, NEW STATESMAN, TLS BOOK OF THE YEAR  'A richly panoramic exploration of the British experience of India ...  hugely researched and elegantly written, sensitive to the ironies of the  past and brimming with colourful details' Dominic Sandbrook, Sunday Times  The British in this book lived in India from shortly after the reign of Elizabeth I until well into the reign of Elizabeth II.

While previous studies of Kipling have concentrated on his writing and on his domestic life, this book studies his public role and his influence on the way Britons saw both themselves and their empire.Based on extensive research in Britain and in the under-explored archives of the US, David Gilmour has produced a study of a man who embodied the spirit of his country a hundred years ago as closely as Shakespeare had done 300 years earlier.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49570562965777,"sku":"GOR001909300","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53489945477393,"sku":"GOR011623203","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0719555396.jpg?v=1750816836"},{"product_id":"film-club-book-david-gilmour-9780446199308","title":"The Film Club","description":"\u003cb\u003eA warmly witty account of the three years a man spent teaching life lessons to his high school dropout son by showing him the world's best (and occasionally worst) films.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e At the start of this brilliantly unconventional family memoir, David Gilmour is an unemployed movie critic trying to convince his fifteen-year-old son Jesse to do his homework.

Cordoba was once the greatest city of the Arab West; its spectacular rise and even more spectacular fall belong to the Moorish period of Spanish history.

If he had not invaded Sicily and Naples, we in the north would have the richest and most civilized state in Europe.\" After looking round the room at the other guests, he added in an even lower voice, \"Of course to the south we would have a neighbour like Egypt.\"' These words stayed in the author's mind for a long time. The dream of a unified Italy, how and why it has never been more than a dream, became the subject of a book he has been thinking about and writing for the last twenty years. Was the elderly Italian right? \"The Pursuit of Italy\" traces the whole history of the Italian peninsula since the Romans in a wonderfully readable style, full of well-chosen stories and observations from personal experience, and peopled by many of the great figures of the Italian past, from Cicero and Virgil to Machiavelli and the Medici, Garibaldi and Cavour, and the rather less inspiring political figures of the 20th century. Gilmour gives a clear-eyed view of the Risorgimento, the pivotal event in modern Italian history, debunking the many absurd and influential myths which have grown up around it but including a particularly sympathetic portrait of Giuseppe Verdi, one of many cultural figures he treats. Gilmour shows that the glory of Italy has always lain in its regions, with their distinctive civic cultures, cuisine, art and identities. Similarly, most of the people of the peninsula have thought of themselves first as Tuscans, Venetians, Romans, Neapolitans or Sicilians and as Italians second, if at all. This, he argues, is where the strength of Italy lies rather than in misconceived ideas of unity. This wise and enormously engaging book explains the course of Italian history in a manner and with a coherence which no one with any interest in the country could fail to enjoy.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49808276095249,"sku":"GOR002542691","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50132805452049,"sku":"GOR002405997","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52833204863249,"sku":"GOR007359583","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1846142512.jpg?v=1751451677"},{"product_id":"live-at-pompeii-cd-0889854649524","title":"Live At Pompeii","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49836998459665,"sku":"DVDB073ZYRRZPVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50245741969681,"sku":"DVDB073ZYRRZPLN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B073ZYRRZP.jpg?v=1751162428"},{"product_id":"long-recessional-book-david-gilmour-9780141990880","title":"The Long Recessional","description":"'Superb, beautifully written, touching and occasionally very funny' Andrew Roberts  David Gilmour's superb biography of Rudyard Kipling is the first to show  how the life and work of the great writer mirrored the trajectory of  the British Empire, from its zenith to its final decades.

As Gilmour makes clear, Kipling's mysterious stories and poetry deeply  influenced the way his readers saw both themselves and the British  Empire, and they continue to challenge us today.

As The Count of Monte-Cristo, Esperance, AH and the servants approached the palace on their return from the struggle with the bandits in the almond grove, their ears were suddenly saluted by loud cries of terror. They came from the library and thither Monte-Cristo hurried, followed by his son. On the floor in the center of the apartment Haydee lay in a swoon, and bending over her mother was Zuleika, screaming and wringing her little hands. The Count raised his wife and placed her upon a divan, while Esperance brought a water- jar and bathed her temples with its cool, refreshing contents, Zuleika meanwhile holding her mother's hands and sobbing violently.
