Description

Sarah Disraeli never married and never left the family house, and her brother wrote to her for twenty years about everything he was doing: the debts, the novels, the disastrous maiden speech, the courtship of Mary Anne, the first seat, the dinners at which the men who ran England slowly stopped laughing at him.These are the years before power — from 1832, when he was a dandy novelist trying to get elected, to 1852 and the first Chancellorship. Because he is writing to a sister rather than to posterity, he is funny, unguarded and often wrong about people, which the memoirs never allow. Published in 1886, five years after his death, with a portrait; second edition.This is a faithful print-on-demand facsimile of the 1886 London edition, reproduced in full from a library copy. The historical text is reproduced without modification; only the format, margins and legibility have been reset for modern printing.
