David, personally I find April Blood by Martines to be a great account of the events. Additionally, I've written a fair amount on how the events were such a visual attack on Florentine republicanism. I always echo the quote from Soren Kierkegaard, “The tyrant dies and his rule is over, the martyr dies and his rule begins.” Certainly, this worked in the favor of the Medici as the Palleschi further glorified their leaders.
