Book excerpt: Excerpt from Italian Life in Town and Country NE of the greatest difficulties in the way of studying Italy and the Italians, especially if we have to confine our observations within nar row limits, lies in the great differences of life, habits, character, and, to a certain extent, of lan guage, which subsist between the inhabitants of one part of the Peninsula and those of another. The Piedmontese and the Lombards are not, per haps, as difi'erent from the Neapolitans as they are from the English or the French, but still the difference is far greater than that between an inhabitant of Devonshire and a Yorkshireman or between an Englishman and a Scotchman.
