The son of a Jewish writer, he became Prime Minister of Great Britain twice, invented modern Conservatism, wrote bestselling novels, and did it all with a flair and audacity that left his contemporaries simultaneously baffled and captivated. He was Queen Victoria's favourite Prime Minister, and she was not easily impressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVincent's study is characteristically sharp and original - he takes Disraeli's ideas seriously, gives full weight to his views on race, Judaism, and politics, and analyses the fiction alongside the political career. It is a fine example of what the Past Masters series does best: bringing a leading scholar's full attention to bear on a figure who rewards it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn essential short introduction to one of the great originals of British public life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor: John Vincent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeries: Past Masters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Oxford University Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9780192876812\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: 14z30571\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Preloved - used and recycled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 100g (3.5 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57046705897847,"sku":"16z30571","price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/5969\/8476\/files\/IMG-20260424_185847686.jpg?v=1777230181","url":"https:\/\/wesellit.uk\/products\/disraeli-pb-john-vincent-past-masters","provider":"WeSellit.UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
