(two readers' reviews from goodreads:)
"This book should have been titled “The Politicsof the Papal States” or “The Lives and Loves of Ambitious Popes” as very few military matters are dealt with. Instead the machinations ofAlexander VI, Julius II and Leo X to secure and expand the Papal States are detailed ib great length. Their use of treaties with France, Spain and the Empire to subdue Florence and Venice subverted the goal ofItalian unity. Long discourse on art and architecture add nothing to the
discussion but the examination of the Lateran Council, although to drawn out, is on point as church reform had great bearing on politics. The author’s style is fine even though he loses sight of his topic."
"The author died in 1901, and, whatever the case,this book is vastly stronger than other nineteenth-century histories I've read. However, I hope that someone can improve "The Wars of the Papal States..." in a moderncontext."

Mandell Creighton (1843 – 1901) was a British historian and a bishop of the Church of England. A scholar of the Renaissance papacy, Creighton was the first occupant of the Dixie Chair of Ecclesiastical History at the University of Cambridge.
