Excerpt

When Alexandre Dumas wrote his Crimes of the Borgias—­and other
“Crimes”—­he fully intended to compile a companion volume, treating of
episodes in the great family of the Medici.  With this project in view,
he collected much material, and actually published, tentatively, two
interesting brochures:  Une Année à Florence—­in 1841, and Les
Galeries de Florence
—­in 1842.
