Sidney Sonnino is perhaps one of the greatest odd men out of modern European history. This is the view of Peter Nichols who has been looking at the recently discovered letters and journals of this man of Anglo-Italian Jewish parentage, who was twice Prime Minister of Italy, and Foreign Minister throughout the First World War.
Peter Nichols looks at the political development of Sidney Sonnino who saw the Risorgimento. the Paris Commune. the Versailles Peace Conference, and the beginnings of the Fascismo.
