Publisher's Summary:
Direct and coldly pragmatic, Niccolò Machiavelli's The Prince is the preeminent guide to winning and maintaining power at the highest levels, where deception and manipulation are necessary tools, and political allies should never be mistaken for friends.
Once a foreign policy official in his native Florence, Machiavelli was ousted by the Medici family. After surviving disgrace and torture at their hands, he penned The Prince to garner their favor. While this effort was ignored, the five-hundred-year-old work endures and is now considered one of the most influential - and controversial - political treatises of all time.
Revised edition: Previously published as The Prince, this edition of The Prince (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Very well detailed on examples supporting Machiavelli's suggestions to maintain power and support of rulership. These historic details help clarify history of the importance of leaders. It was enlightening the effect Napoleon had in ousting Austrian troops from Italy with troops lacking appropriate footwear. They trod on strawmade footwear. The factors that lead to Italy's demise is well illustrated.
The Strategic Prince
Observations about power, strategy, and leadership that made for very interesting reading and some re-thinking and review of some of my own views about some of them. I have maintained a noble idea about one in particular -leadership, but after reading this book my leader would not have survived the times of Niccolo Machiavelli, or even perhaps the current times.
Great!
Enjoyed every single page. A good manual for life. Not just in politics.
Definitely I recommend this publisher. Graphics are not really necessary. They don't describe much
Very small fonts and thin edition
I was very dissapointed when I received this book because it is so thin. I remembered I had one edition when my university years and it was comfortable to read. This one isn't. Very small fonts. It looks like a guidelines manual.
Nothing False
There is nothing false about Niccolo Machiavelli. The bad usage to which his name is put fails to appreciate his purpose -- to be expected in the modern context, I suppose.
