WHAT WAS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CAVOUR AND GARIBALDI?

ACCORDING TO GARIBALDI ITALIAN UNIFICATION COULD ONLY COME ABOUT BY WHAT MEANS?

To release Southern Italy form foreign ruler, without being reliant on foreign influence

he was unexpectedly successful in taking control of Sicily and Naples

By agreeing to hand over his territories Garibaldi laid the way clear for Cavour and Piedmont to take over Italy - Kingdom of Italy

Garibaldi was a true disciple to the cause of unifying the whole of Italy - Cavour only interested in increasing Piedmonts power by unifying N.Italy - Covour was more pragamtic and stopped Garibaldis plans of invading Rome that may have led to an armed intervention with France

Unification could only come about by revolutionary means and armed force, without this belief the process may have been much more laborious
