The Prince

Niccolò Machiavelli

5 h 55 min · 16 chapters · read by 7 LibriVox volunteers

Niccolò Machiavelli wrote this short book around 1513 as advice to a ruler: how to win power, how to keep it, and whether it is better to be loved or feared. Its frankness made "Machiavellian" a word; it is still read by students of politics, history and leadership.
