内容简介

The first authoritative and compulsively readable history of the rise of this legendary banking dynasty

In his rich and nuanced portrait of the remark- able, elusive Rothschild family, Oxford scholar and bestselling author Niall Ferguson uncovers the secrets behind the family's phenomenal economic success. He reveals for the first time the details of the family's vast political network, which gave it access to and influence over many of the greatest statesmen of the age. And he tells a family saga, tracing the importance of family unity and the profound role of Judaism in the lives of a dynasty that rose from the confines of the Frankfurt ghetto and later used its influence to assist oppressed Jews throughout Europe. A definitive work of impeccable scholarship with a thoroughly engaging narrative, The House of Rothschild is a biography of the rarest kind, in which mysterious and fascinating historical figures finally spring to life.

    史料之丰盛远胜于叙事之流畅,以至于让我觉得Ferguson可能因为进入Rothschild资料馆机会太难得而完全忘了自己的长项,不过总而言之还是颇有养分的,虽然看起来艰难些06-13

    史料很丰富,但写得太繁杂了,可读性不高,如果简洁些会更好10-05
