About This Book

From the Translator's Foreward:
"Two plagues ravaged Europe in 1848: Asiatic cholera and the fever of revolution. Giono, who in The Horseman on the Roof exposed his hero, Angelo Pardi, to an earlier cholera plague in France, now sets him wandering in the 1848 epidemic of revolution in the north of Italy.
