'Ross King deftly stitches modern Michelangelo scholarship into his fluent and gripping narrative. The result is a delightful book that overturns many legends.'
Independent
'A fascinating and carefully researched account of day-to-day life atop the Sistine scaffolding.'
The Times
'A narrative that never falls back on exaggeration or deviates from the facts.'
Frank Whitford, Sunday Times
'We learn an enormous amount by reading this book; King's grasp of and research into the period seem all-encompassing.'
Spectator
