American revolution: an Italian chronicle
Certainly very little persons have acknowledge about Carlo Botta, an Italian doctor with some expiration to freedom of Italy and therefore revolutionary, in fact he was arrested because revolutionary and after an years in prison he gone in France, at 1795, where certainly he has a climate major fit to his think for revolution of 1789; he gone back in Italy as doctor of France army and he was also active in policy for independence of Italy, but he died in France because in Italy every collaborator of France and Napoleon were persecuted persons. But here I want alone describe he History of war of independence of United States of America, a book written at 1809, true chronicle narration of every moment and event; true long and particular narration, but I think that Botta is a exemple for his aseptic narration, he was certainly a revolutionary, his political choose shows it, but he tells every moment of this revolution with an aseptic participation, he takes every moment by much sources, and he described also names, therefore: Journals of the house of Lords; Journals of the house of Commons; Authentic accounts of the proceedings of Congress held at New York, in 1765; Journals of the proceedings of the Congress, 8°.
