the long version

"A younger, fabulously wealthy Florentine gentleman, Strozzi contributed to Machiavelli's restoration and aided many of his post-1520 achievements. This book offers the first biography of Strozzi available in English, as well as the first examination of the patron-client relationship that developed between the two men. Through wide-ranging textual investigations, William J. Landon reveals Strozzi's influence on Machiavelli. The volume also includes the first critical edition and English translation of Strozzi's Pistola fatta per la peste - a work that survives as a Machiavelli autography."--Inside flaps of dust jacket.
