The Rise of the House of Rothschild by Egon Caesar Corti is a historical account of the Rothschild family, one of the most prominent banking dynasties in Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries. The book traces the origins of the family from their humble beginnings as Jewish moneylenders in Frankfurt, Germany, to their rise as one of the wealthiest and most influential families in Europe.The book explores the Rothschilds' involvement in the Napoleonic Wars, their role in financing European governments, and their contributions to the development of international finance. It also delves into the personal lives of the Rothschilds, including their marriages, family dynamics, and philanthropic endeavors.Corti's writing is detailed and well-researched, drawing on primary sources such as letters, diaries, and financial records. He provides a comprehensive and engaging account of the Rothschilds' rise to power and their lasting impact on the world of finance. Overall, The Rise of the House of Rothschild is an insightful and informative read for anyone interested in the history of banking and finance, as well as European history in general.1928. Certain special features of the 19th century have been entirely neglected. An example of this neglect is the ignoring by historians of the role played by the Rothschild family in the history of the 19th century. The object of this work is to appraise the important influence of this family on the politics of the period, not only in Europe, but throughout the world. The influence of the Rothschilds, interestingly enough, is barely mentioned in other more comprehensive works. The aim of this work is to trace the rise of the House of Rothschild from its small beginnings to the great position it obtained, culminating in the year of its great crisis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
