Some Christmas holiday reading. Short sections, quite intellectual in places. Fuses lit theory in a clever way but requires concentration

I'm on a roll with the history book novelisations. The politics and the machinations are very interesting.. surprisingly so actually.

This book is just the most fascinating history of the ruling family in Florence. Although it's from 600 yrs ago the story is lively. History really is more exciting than anything you could make up
