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. Rothschild's journey from the salons of Paris to the fields of Eretz Israel is a tale of emotional awakening, political conviction, and personal transformation--of a man's search for a cause and discovery of himself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47891460194455,"sku":"9780300255201","price":2048.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780300255201.webp?v=1781183773","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/edmond-de-rothschild-finding-zion-9780300255201","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
