Apologies for not blogging lately. Anyhow, theres not much to report except that Hibbert's book "The Borgias and their enemies" arrived in the mail around New Years which was pleasing. Its a fairly lengthy and detailed book (Roughly 330 pages) that also contains a detailed index and list of primary sources. The years the book discusses roughly spans from 1431 to 1519. It illustrates events before and after Rodrigo's time which can give me extra background information. I think this book will be an excellent read and source, but i have yet to actually start reading it.
I have almost finished reading "The March of Folly" and the chapter on Rodrigo. Once i've finished reading that book, I can begin reading Hibbert's book.
Hope you are reading faster now.
