Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Florentine Histories, Vol. 1 of 2 For: three hundred years the Florentine Histories have been regarded with veneration by the scholars of Europe. It is one of those few works to which the judgment of successive generations has assigned a high place in the annals of the world. It has been consulted by the student of History to explore the majestic ruins of the Roman empire, for the origin of all modern states-by the philosopher to trace the progress of light and liberty, as they travelled down through the gloom of the middle ages - by the vindicators of man and of truth, to read the story of their servitude, their struggles and their triumphs.
