Garibaldian volunteers - from a photograph by Herr Fehrenbachs, 1860. Creator: Unknown
Garibaldian volunteers - from a photograph by Herr Fehrenbachs, 1860. Sergeant Sparkhall, Major Styles, and Lieut. Ceuto, of the Glasgow company. Major Styles...wears the Crimean medal; and, from his unceasing energy in raising the volunteers and assisting Garibaldi in his great cause, he will be remembered for many years to come...A love of adventure, as much, perhaps, as a love of freedom, is actuating our countrymen to volunteer for Garibaldi and to leave their ties and kindred at home to fight for the liberty of a foreign people. Last week no less a number than 800 volunteers...embarked...for Southern Italy...The majority of the volunteers...are men of middle-class position in society; and in very many instances lucrative employment has been given up for the purpose of accepting service in the Garibaldian corps. Many, also, of those who are now in Italy are men of independent means, who go out solely for the excitement of taking part in actual warfare...Garibaldi has a very high opinion of his English volunteers, and has so expressed himself through the medium of his Aide-de-Camp, late Captain and now Major Styles. This is a proof...that Englishmen never fail to maintain their prestige for military prowess and indomitable courage'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860
