Publisher's Synopsis
An often misunderstood book that was at one time thought to be an evil book, The Prince is a take on how Machiavelli believed that a prince of a nation could take and hold power. Many royals feared the common people at the time of this text being written and Machiavelli responded to his princes fears with how he should rule. Other writings reveal that Nicolo never believed this to be the way a prince should actually treat those around him.
