Table Showers Detroit

139th ANNIVERSARY breach of Porta Pia


September 20, 1870
" At 4 we were woken up in Monterotondo ... We left immediately. As soon as we were in sight of the city, arguing the clouds of smoke that military operations were directed at various points .... The Zouaves pulled from dense Castro Pretorio .... at 10.10 when the Porta Pia was not free, the first target entered the city .... It 's moving, it is compressed by the affection so many years that everything breaks at a point now: it's the cry for freedom of Rome, which is released a hundred thousand hearts; is the first day of a new life : is sublime! "Edmondo De Amicis


For this year I will not forget, in total and conscious indifference of the institutions to remember one of the key events in our history: the end the temporal power of the Popes and the unification of Italy.
I go out my way and I'm preparing for an event that will combine the history with the show for next year.
