First edition of Ron Chernow’s ambitious saga of the Warburg dynasty. Octavo, original half cloth, pictorial endpapers, illustrated. Boldly signed by Ron Chernow on the second front free endpaper. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Andy Carpenter.
Ron Chernow's saga traces the fortunes of the influential German-Jewish banking family from its generation of great wealth, stimulated by the Franco-Prussian War, through the family's defamation and degradation by the Nazis, and its subsequent return to Hamburg following World War II. In the United States, family members married and joined forces with the Schiffs and Loebs at the beginning of the century. “This is grand-scale scholarship. . . . It is all here, along with so much of the painful, tumultuous history of our time, all in one splendid book" (David McCullough).
