Francis Leckie: l’inglese che voleva “britannizzare” la Sicilia | Siracusa Post https://www.siracusapost.com/francis-leckie-linglese-che-voleva-britannizzare-la-sicilia/
Alla fine del ‘700, al crescente ma pur sempre modesto flusso di diplomatici, archeologi, naturalisti e giovani rampolli dell’aristocrazia che da qualche tempo per ragioni d’ufficio o di studio avevano scoperto il Sud Europa, in concomitanza con l’invio nell’isola di un contingente militare britannico in chiave anti napoleonica, si sovrappone la presenza di un cospicuo numero di mercanti ed imprenditori inglesi.
Just like the remark of author at the beginning of book "This is not an official history based on a study of government records ; nor is it an in-depth social analysis." instead, it provided another lively perspective of an era, which the instant messenger was never existed but letters ; telegrams or limited accessible high tech equipment at that time - Telephone.
