BUONAPARTE AND ITALY.

THE HISTORY of ITALY during the
CONSULATE and EMPIRE of NAPOLEON
BUONAPARTE. Translated from the Italian of
CARLO BOTTA, by the Author of " The Life of
Joanna, Queen of Naples." In 2 vols. tivo. Price 265.
*** Few portions of modern history afford a finer sub-
ject for the pen than the period ccmprised within these
volumes, and M. Botta is universally allowed to have
treated it in a masterly manner. His independent and
uncompromising tone—his ardent love of liberty—the lu-
minous picture he presents of the events in the various
States of Italy—his forcible narrative and details—his.de-
velopeinent of the intrigues of the Courts of the Thuilleries
and the Vatican—his dispassionate judgment—the dignity
of his style, and causticity of his remarks, all seemed to
point out this work as worthy of appearing in an English
dross.
