Smuts, a historian, has read widely, pulling together much valuable information while offering intelligent insights of his own. . . . Particularly valuable is the book's emphasis on the social and factional complexity of the court and thus of the art it produced and consumed.\"--\u003ci\u003eSixteenth Century Journal\u003c\/i\u003e \"Smuts's book deserves a wide readership.
