About this book

Eight books trace Florence and the wider affairs of Italy up to the death of Lorenzo the Magnificent, beginning in the earliest times. Niccolò Machiavelli, best known for The Prince, wrote it after losing his post as secretary of the Florentine republic in 1512. This edition follows a 1901 printing whose translator is not named, and it carries an introduction by Hugo Albert Rennert of the University of Pennsylvania. The introduction sketches Machiavelli's life, including his birth in 1469 and his missions to Louis XII and Cesare Borgia.
