Internal conflicts within the army, state, and society in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Italy brought nationalism to the forefront of Italian culture. This volume demonstrates how the intersection of bourgeois and military values molded citizens into patriots instilled with the ideals of both factions of society, aiding in Italy's realization of becoming a new state and a great European power.
