MADONNA OF THE SEVEN HILLS BY JEAN PLAIDY IN SOUTH AFRICA

 No family is more notorious than the Borgias.  They provided a source of scandal during their lives which has not abated after five centuries. In this compelling novel, Jean Plaidy tells their story from the rise of Rodrigo Borgia to the mysterious birth of the Infanta Romano and Lucrezia's marriage with Alfonso of Bisceglie.  It is a tale of such passion, intrigue and murder as has rarely occurred before or since.  Its setting is 15th century Rom, amid the jewelled splendour of the Papal Court. Hard cover.  The book is in good condition.  The dust jacket shows signs of wear.  286 pages.
