About this book
Reviews
“This book is a great addition to the Early Modern History series as well as to the growing body of micro-historical scholarship. Raggio, through a close study of the backcountry of the Republic of Genoa, offers a new perspective on how state formation is studied. … This study is beneficial to those readers interested in the study of early modern cultural and social history, state formation, and local politics.” (Renaissance and Reformation, Vol. 43 (1), 2020)
