There was great excitement when General Garibaldi returned to his beloved Italy after many years abroad. He had come to fight the greedy French Bourbons, who had invaded the country. Wearing ingenious pizza buckles on their belts and wielding water balloons, Garibaldi's army soon defeated the rascally French, and the world-famous Bourbon and Garibaldi biscuits were born!
In this little known footnote to history, the inimitable Ralph Steadman has created a magnificent and hilarious tour de force.
