Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rambles in the Island of Corsica and Sardinia: With Notices of Their History, Antiquities, and Present Condition
AN idea prevails that the Island of Sardinia is destined, ere long, in fulfilment of another secret understanding with the Court of Turin, to share the fate of Savoy and Nice in becoming a dependency of the French em pire. But perhaps it may not be generally understood that such a transfer, as regards British interests in the Mediterranean, would have more important bearings than even the acquisition by France of the frontier provinces, the ancient possessions of the House of Savoy, already ceded.
