1.The Prince (Bantam Classics)The Prince (Bantam Classics)
from Bantam Classics
Price: $4.50

Customer Review:
Machiavelli's "The Prince" is a guide of morality-void techniques for acquiring and maintaining political power and ultimately, political fortune. Written nearly 500 years ago, this blueprint for tyranny is just as relevant today. As his compass, Machiavelli uses history, both ancient and... more info

3.Murder of a Medici PrincessMurder of a Medici Princess
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
Caroline Murphy's new book is another "must have" for lovers of remarkable lesser-known royal stories. One is taken into the extraordinarily "ahead-of-her-time" life of Isabella de Medici, a Renaissance princess and daughter of the first Grand Duke of Tuscany. A thoroughly gifted, cultured and... more info

4.The Sistine Secrets: Michelangelo s Forbidden Messages in the Heart of the VaticanThe Sistine Secrets: Michelangelo's Forbidden Messages in the Heart of the Vatican
from HarperOne
Price: $17.79

Customer Review:
Like the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel (and the Last Judgment fresco on the wall at the alter end), this book is wonderful at many levels.
First, it will help people understand a lot about one of the great philo-Semitic periods of history. Together with Britain in Victorian times, surely... more info

5.The Silver SpoonThe Silver Spoon
from Phaidon Press
Price: $26.37

Customer Review:
This cookbook is awesome! It has recipes listed by ingredients and by course. Each section begins with an explanation of how to care for and cook the ingredient. I have decided this would make a great gift for a housewarming or even a wedding.

6.Survival In AuschwitzSurvival In Auschwitz
from Touchstone
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
I like the author. Many years ago he wrote "Christus kam nur bis Eboli"
and that made me travel to that place in southern Italy.
This book is even better. It informes me and at the same time it
is interesting and I can not put it aside while reading.
He writes about what he... more info

7.The Name of the Rose: including the Author s PostscriptThe Name of the Rose: including the Author's Postscript
from Harvest Books
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
This book reminds me of the line "I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out." Apparently, there's a murder mystery to be found somewhere between the cover's 500 pages. The murder whodunit is actually a pretty good one if you can stand wading through the many, many -- did I say many -- arduous... more info

8.The Lost PaintingThe Lost Painting
from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
Some authors with a best seller under their belts have been content to pump out a series of books in a similar vein. Jonathan Harr seems to be following a different path, good for him.
Published ten years after A Civil Action, an acclaimed account of an environmental lawsuit told from the... more info

Customer Review:
This novel contained historical background, a fascinating main character, a warm understanding of people and their frailties, a brooding acceptance of mortality, a nostalgia for old values and vanished beauty, an eye for class differences, a love of the land described, and several jarring but... more info
