Focusing on transnational British-Italian women, the book explores how they transformed traditional feminine roles into significant contributions to Italian Unification. Figures like Mary Chambers and Jessie White Mario challenged societal norms, engaging in fundraising and memory collection while advancing the female emancipation movement. It highlights their use of conservative language to achieve revolutionary aims and emphasizes the role of non-Catholic and non-Italian women in shaping Italy's political landscape, underscoring the enduring influence of religion in 19th-century philanthropy and politics.
