Lord Beaconfield's Correspondence With His Sister, 1832-1852 (1886) is a collection of letters written by the British statesman Benjamin Disraeli, who was also known as Lord Beaconsfield, to his sister Sarah. The letters span a period of 20 years, from 1832 to 1852, and offer a unique insight into the personal and political life of one of the most influential figures of the Victorian era. The book provides a glimpse into Disraeli's early years as a struggling writer and politician, his rise to prominence in the Conservative Party, and his eventual ascent to the position of Prime Minister. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including Disraeli's political views and strategies, his relationships with other politicians and members of the royal family, his travels abroad, and his personal life, including his marriage and family.Throughout the correspondence, Disraeli's wit, intelligence, and charm are on full display, as are his deep affection for his sister and his unwavering commitment to his political beliefs. The letters are also notable for their vivid descriptions of life in Victorian England, including the social and cultural mores of the time.Overall, Lord Beaconfield's Correspondence With His Sister, 1832-1852 is a fascinating and illuminating read for anyone interested in the life and times of one of Britain's most important political figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
