Utterly confident in its brave defense of a notorious character, The Life of Cesare Borgia is a must read for any serious scholar of the period or a fan of the Borgias.Sabatini pulls off a polemic against the historians who disparage the Borgias because he relies on evidence and a superior understanding of the human psyche, also bolstered by a few truths of Machiavelli.I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and hope to read more courageous efforts by biographers in the future.
