Book Description
"In this biography, Christopher Hibbert concentrates on the personal life of one of the most fascinating men of the nineteenth century and one of the most exotic Prime Ministers of all time. Superb speaker, writer and wit, Disraeli had not intended to be a politician. A conspicuous dandy, he was constantly in debt, enjoying many scandalous affairs until, in 1839, to everyone's surprise he married an eccentric widow twelve years older than himself." "At Hughenden Manor, near High Wycombe, they 'never had a moment of dullness' for over thirty years, during which time Disraeli's brilliance as a parliamentarian made him as celebrated as any politician in England. As an antidote to his grief at his wife's death in 1872 he threw himself back into the political life, becoming Prime Minister for the second time in 1874, displacing Gladstone much to the Queen's delight."--BOOK JACKET.
