In this compelling biography, award-winning historian and journalist James McAuley tells the story of a man who defied his elite world to support a radical cause: the creation of a Jewish homeland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on rare access to archives--including Rothschild's own long-lost memoir--McAuley reveals how and why this reserved French aesthete became a driving force in the early Zionist settlement of Palestine.
