After his capture of Reggio, Garibaldi began his march up the Calabrian coast towards Naples. At Villa San Giovanni, he surrounded a large force of the Neapolitan royal army and negotiated its surrender, taking 3,500 prisoners and several field guns. He released the prisoners to their homes, an action that contributed to his increasingly uncontested march towards the Bourbon capital. He entered Naples on September 7, 1860. (By John Osborne)
