DYSRAELI. Maurois, André

An emblematic biography, a masterpiece of the genre and the best work of André Maurois .

With his great art as a writer, both in the story and in the structure of the book, the author introduces us to the life of one of the greatest and most complex political men who have ever existed, at the same time that he unfolds before the reader's view an entire era in the history of England, the era of greatest splendor of what began to be called the British Empire.

André Maurois gives us a living story of who has been considered the greatest political man, and leads us to be moved by the two most endearing facets of that very difficult man: the tenderness of the affection that he and his wife profess for each other, and the trusting treatment, above a jealously observed protocol, maintained by Queen Victoria and her Prime Minister until his death.
