Summary: For the lovers of historical fact.
Review: This excellent piece of historical research and narrative, exposes a considerable level of knowledgement on political, religious and philosophycal matters around the time when Occidental Civilization started the economical, social and artistic processes that developed our society of today. The writing, precise and well informed, goes directly to those facts, and the relations between them, that brought European culture of XIV to XVII centuries, reach the brightness of mankind. Not being a palette of beautiful paintings by italian and flemish masters, but a wise linkage of events taken place on the different areas of Europe, this book represents an important reference by any person dedicated to the study of those times.
