Title: The Family Medici Author: Mary Hollingsworth Narrator: Anne Flosnik Format: mp3 Length: 12 hrs and 53 mins Release date: 03-06-18 Ratings: 4 out of 5 stars, 25 ratings Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Having founded the bank that became the most powerful in Europe in the 15th century, the Medici gained massive political power in Florence, raising the city to a peak of cultural achievement and becoming its hereditary dukes. Mary Hollingsworth argues that the idea that the Medici were enlightened rulers of the Renaissance is a fiction that has now acquired the status of historical fact. In truth, the Medici were as devious and immoral as the Borgias - tyrants loathed in the city they illegally made their own.
