Here is what people are saying about the Brunelleschi's Dome: How a Renaissance Genius Reinvented Architecture
5 Star Rating  "Fantastic Art History"2009-08-20
- Reviewed By rboulan1
What a fascinating book!
This tale of how the dome of Florence's cathedral was built gives a fascinating account of the time, the engineering, the artists and the rivalry that drove them. I have given this book to many non-history buffs and they have loved it.
 
4 Star Rating  "Super-fun; the Perfect Florence Read"2009-08-14
- Reviewed By User: A2SQMECLIWLQFI
Man I just LOVED this. Perfect for the visit to Florence. And quite a fast and easy read. Who knew it'd be so compelling to follow the rivalries, the pursuit of perfection, and the plain old puzzle solving. How to make that dome stand without supports during construction. So cool and engaging! Surprising the writer brought that to life so well. Grade: A-.
 
3 Star Rating  "Not as good as Michelangelo & the Pope's Ceiling"2009-06-15
- Reviewed By User: A1FQJ6EWSF5F2Y
Perhaps King had a little less material to work with here, but I felt that the narrative fell a little flat compared to King's other book "Michelangelo and the Pope's Ceiling".

Still, I picked this up in Florence, and it was informative and fun to read in the shadow of the Duomo itself.
 
5 Star Rating  "Genius of the Rennaissance"2009-06-13
- Reviewed By User: A33WJSZU9OYXF5
Terrific little book that tells the story of Brunelleschi and the Dome he created in Florence. Like Raphael, Michelangelo, and a handful of others Brunelleschi's work was one of genius. A story well worth reading.
 
5 Star Rating  "If your going to Florence"2009-06-13

Read this Terrific little book that tells the story of Brunelleschi and the Dome he created in Florence. Like Raphael, Michelangelo, Vasari, Ghiberti, and a handful of others in Renaissance Italy, Brunelleschi's work was one of genius. A story well worth reading.
 
4 Star Rating  "4 stars"2009-05-23
- Reviewed By User: AI5R0ESMQROBA
I was expecting a 50/50 - 70/30 architecture/renaissance life split and felt it was closer to 80/20. At 200 pages though, it was the perfect length before I would have lost interest in the architecture story lines. The side stories were great, especially when the various military campaigns are discussed. Several illustrations of equipment at key points help to enhance the descriptions.
