Read in October, 2011

It is unfair of me to rate this book as I wasn't really focused. This is one book I'd like to have a professor parse out for me. I wonder if Peterson will let me sit in on a class!
I think it takes more than one read to absorb, which I don't see happening. The introduction was helpful but I didn't read the letters/stories at the end. I was sick of it. Lots of references to forgotten rulers. Go Switzers!!
After writing this to curry favor and get reappointed, I kept imagining Machiavelli's pleasure at this being read centuries later!

Deale Hutton I read it for a course and got to discuss it, which made it a much better read in a class.
