Finished our unit on Machiavelli in my political theory class and I'm so glad we were able to read both The Prince and The Discourses. It's really the only way to gain a holistic understanding of Machiavelli's principles and political motives.

This book is vital for any historian (or history lover) to read, especially if the only thing he associates Machiavelli with is "The Prince". This book gives a much fuller view of Machiavelli's political theory.
