| Description: | Select Guide Rating While Leonardo Da Vinci is one of the most discussed artists of all time, it''s shocking how little is actually known about him at least, according to most of his biographies. Why did he leave his small hometown? Why didn''t he complete so many projects? Why did a seeming peace-lover volunteer to create war machines? Why did he always take the Mona Lisa with him, wherever he went? Was he gay? Enter passionate Da Vinci fan Mike Lankford, who has written the first biography openly and thoroughly discussing the questions which previous modern scholars and biographers have avoided. |
