Chamberlin's account of one of the great tragedies of history. It was a tragedy that nobody intended, but it cost the lives of thousands and brought a way of life to an end. [. . .] This popular account, based largely on contemporary Italian printed sources, recounts the collection of the mercenaries and their great march south to Rome, the assault on Rome itself and the events and people involved in the looting, vandalism, and rape that followed. Against the glittering background of the Renaissance, E.R. Chamberlin describes the disintegration of a society at the hands of its remorseless enemies." #02501.
