"As Machiavelli's works were placed on the Pope's Index librorum prohibitorum in 1559, later issuing of his works use a false date as an imprint (as in 1550, the original date of publication) to avoid censorship."--Bookseller's description.
Each part has divisional title page and separate pagination.
Errors in pagination.
