By O. J. VICTOR.
The wonderful career of Garibaldi reads like a wild romance. No man ever lived who has performed such prodigies of valor, or who has had a more varied fortune. Mr. Victor has had access to the most authentic sources of information, and, it is but proper to say, has produced THE ONLY AUTHENTIC LIFE of the man yet given. It is written in a style calculated to enchain attention from first to last, and will prove, unquestionably, one of the most interesting, instructive and delightful books yet offered to the patrons of the Dime Publications.
"This biography of Garibaldi, the Hero of Italy, is a work of surpassing interest, and, although perfectly authentic in all its details, equals in romantic interest the 'Ivanhoe' of Sir Walter Scott. Those who desire to verify Lord Byron's remark, that 'truth is stranger than fiction,' should not fail to read the strangely eventful life of the foremost man of the nineteenth century. Get the book, we say, and be convinced that the deeds of this extraordinary man were never paralleled, even by the marvellous exploits of Richard Cœur de Leon and those knights who followed Peter the Hermit in his Crusade for the recovery of the Holy Sepulchre."
