- In May 1860 Giuseppe Garibaldi's expedition to Sicily set off in two ships loaded with just over a thousand volunteers. In October, at the end of the campaign, when Garibaldi delivered the south, taken from the Bourbons, to King Vittorio Emanuele, the camicie rosse (Red shirts) had become much greater in number, but the one thousand who had set off from Quarto, near Genoa, remained the symbol of the best-known event in the Italian Risorgimento. As such they are still remembered today in the street names of many Italian towns.
