About: Traces the life and historical context of the visionary friar whose doomsday prophecies lead to his virtual rule over Renaissance Florence after he decried Lorenzo the Magnificent and Borgia Pope Alexander VI, describing his tragic influence over the city, his relationships with such supporters as Michelangelo and Machiavelli, and his eventual condemnation as a heretic.
