A
nice and concise list of books about or set in Florence was recently published in an article by
The Florentine. I've finished
The House of Medici: It's Rise and Fall and
Brunelleschi's Dome. I recommend both, but feel Ross King's
Brunelleschi's Dome is the most fun (I was compelled to read it twice!) and a great peak into the daily life of of a wide range of Florentines during the era.
