Description
Benjamin Disraeli: A Life of Intrigue and Power. This biography by Sarah Bradford offers a fresh perspective on the life of Benjamin Disraeli, tracing his transformation from Byronic dandy to confidant of Queen Victoria. Through previously unknown letters and papers, Bradford sheds new light on Disraeli's relationships with the women in his life, while also bringing to life the intense parliamentary debates that shaped his career. Disraeli's rise to power is marked by fierce fighting, intrigue, and creativity, as he produced some of his most famous works during this period. Bradford masterfully weaves together these different threads to create a compelling portrait of one of England's greatest prime ministers.
