1527. El saqueo de Roma

In 1527, Rome, the heart of Christendom and a symbol of Renaissance power, fell to the imperial troops of Charles V. The sack of the Eternal City was not only a tragedy, but also the event that confirmed Spanish power against France, the Papacy, and the Italian states opposed to the Empire. Five hundred years later, this book reconstructs the events, the key figures, and the political and religious intrigues that led to one of the most momentous events of the 16th century, in a fast-paced and vibrant narrative that will captivate readers.
