Cavour was perhaps the key figure in the process of Italian
unification. As prime minister of Piedmont, still reeling from
military humiliation by Austria, he turned his backward and
insignificant home state into the nucleus of the new Italy by his
astute manipulation of the European great powers, becoming the
united country's first prime minister in the year of his death,
1861. Harry Hearder's incisive study, setting Cavour and the
Risorgimento in the full context of international European
power-politics, reveals a ruthless, egocentric and far from
balanced man - but a politician of genius.
