Download King of the Mountains: The Remarkable Story of Giuseppe Musolino, Italy's Most Famous Outlaw AudioBook Free
In 1897 the young Italian peasant Giuseppe Musolino was falsely convicted of any crime and sentenced to 21 years at hard labor. He soon escaped, and started hunting those who had played a job in his phony conviction, extracting an ominous and lethal revenge, eliminating as many as 25 people. For three years he eluded a massive manhunt conducted by a huge selection of police and even a full regiment of the Italian army. He soon became a hero to the normal people of southern Italy, who risked imprisonment themselves to hide, protect, and preserve him. When he was finally captured his trial needed to be moved to a location 600 a long way north because the government thought no jury in the south would convict him. At the time of the trial The NY Times wrote that he was "the most remarkable being that has ever before stood behind the pubs of Italian justice." This is the first in support of audiobook in British to report the incredible account of Italy's famous Il Brigante.
