The authors of this book are four brothers, Alfredo, Fabrizio, Ugo, and Riccardo Luccio. We wrote this book mostly for our descendants. However, it could also be of interest to a general audience interested in recent European history. The history of the Luccio family -- from its first known member, born in 1775, to the current generations -- coincides with the history of modern Italy. During these two and a half centuries, Italy suffered and changed, through two civil wars (il Risorgimento and la Resistenza), two world wars, and the rise, rule, and fall of Fascism. It also transformed itself from what Count Metternich called "a geographic expression" to a country, from a monarchy to a democratic republic, and from a poor rural economy to the world's eighth largest economy. The Luccio family began in Naples, then the largest city in the peninsula, the largest in Europe after London, Paris, and St. Petersburg, and, before 1861, the capital of the biggest and most populous Italian state. In the 1920s, the family moved to Rome, which had become Italy's capital in 1870. In 1950, it moved to Milan, Italy's economic and cultural capital. This book will follow the Luccio family along with Italian history, from the 1700s to modern day.
