Francis Mahony) To a public organ of essentially broad and independent views, Mahony was essentially the right man in the right place, as Roman Correspondent, during the short conterminous epochs which he described as 'The Fag End of a Long Reign' (that of Gregory XVI.) and 'The Bright Dawn of Better Days' (the opening of Pius the Ninth's Papal reign); and fortunate indeed was Dickens when he shook hands with the Padre on the Milvian Bridge, of historic renown, accepting from him a handful of cigars bought at Torlonia's and 'blessed by the Pope, ' and engaging him at the same time to enter upon the correspondence. The period for Rome was one of transition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
