"Since the 19th century and the classic biography by Pasquale Villari, Savonarola's story has been frequently restudied and retold. It bears fresh retelling, and Lauro Martines, in FIRE IN THE CITY, does so with at once scholarly authority and an admirable combination of clarity and pace. We get a thoroughly good read that is also reliable history, scrupulously documented yet with its pages uncluttered by footnotes."Martines, Lauro is the author of 'Fire in the City Savonarola And the Struggle for the Soul of Renaissance Florence', published 2006 under ISBN 9780195177480 and ISBN 0195177487.
