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 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. Review: What A book - For a 500 page history book, I was shocked that I could not put it down! The history of the family is nothing short of Amazing and Niall is one of my new favorite authors. His knowledge of the European history and history of the financial system adds significantly to the story. Debunked any inclinations I previously held of Rothschilds being Freemasons attempting to take over the world. Their agenda is clearly that of an ambitious investment banking family just trying to make money before their competitors beat them too it, and they do a great job! Nathan is a Genius that really set the family worlds apart from competitors. They use their power to progress the equality of Jews, but their success creates even more jealously and antisemitism. A shocking historical account useful for anyone looking to start a international banking dynasty or to just sit back and fell like you are part of the Rothschild's bank. Review: Forensically Researched - Ferguson has done the world a great service by examing the history and personalities of the Rothschild family and the financial empire. Both volumes of this work should be read. You'll soon see the bankers have as much influence and power over world events as politicians. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #64,839 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #486 in Wall Stickers & Murals | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 527 Reviews | ## Images ![The House of Rothschild - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Ji2Jb5YEL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What A book *by S***L on February 12, 2014* For a 500 page history book, I was shocked that I could not put it down!

This first of two volumes on the history of The House of Rothschild, written by Harvard historian Niall Ferguson, presents original use of then newly available collections of private correspondence, which the author manages to fuse into his own writing in a clear and readable style, sparking his enthusiasm for his story into his readers’s minds. The frequent quoting of letters not only conveys a sense of familiarity with each Rothschild family member but offers precious glimpses of their individual personalities. In sixteen chapters grouped in three parts, this volume chronicles family history from the times of Father and Sons (chapters 1 to 2: the beginnings in the Frankfurt Ghetto; the dealings for William of Hesse during the Napoleonic Wars), through those of Brothers (chapters 3 to 11: the London House; dealings with treasury bonds; early Rothschild myths; the exodus from the Ghetto; relations with aristocratic society; political turmoil; financial effects of peace; the command of European finance; and Nathan’s sudden death), to the times of Uncles and Nephews (chapters 12 to 16: dynastic planning; Spain and America; diplomatic influence; railway investment in Continental Europe; and the 1848 Revolutions). The penultimate chapter, on railway expansion, particularly deserves praise for throwing new light upon the correct balance between the London and Paris Houses. The text is illustrated with graphs, tables, diagrams and figures; some sources are transcribed in the appendixes. Yet, if Ferguson suceeds in unmasking tales of financial tricks and in debunking myths and conspiracy theories, he seems more at ease with conspicuity, architecture, diplomacy and dynastic politics than with finance, failing to grasp, as most Rothschild detractors, how the Rothschilds created value. Arbitrage between currency markets is pointed to as an early business touchstone, and bonds markets’ price fluctuations and crises are narrated somewhat extensively. But a reader who falsely assumed the Rothschilds could only thrive in a bullish market would probably remain mistaken. The family’s role in funding the long 19th century peace is amply discussed, but scant comparison to other banks allows almost no insights about the role played by the family in shaping 19th century finance. Throughout the narrative, thrift updates of the partner’s agreements and the five banks’ capital increases are duly given, but explanations of operational structure and functioning are more frugal - many times, scarcity of sources is to blame. A sketch of the post-1815 diversification, one third in treasury bonds, one third in bills of exchange, leaves one third remaining, despite a brief mention of securities. Nothing is said about liquidity ratios, reserve policies, passive composition (whose was the money?), cash flows, liabilities and risks. Underwriting is mentioned, not explained; relationships with clients, almost forgotten; the servicing of European aristocracy and top bourgeoisie seems reduced to private banking for, and personal lending to, politicians. Despite the unanswered questions, I do recommend the book. ## Frequently Bought Together - The House of Rothschild - The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World: 10th Anniversary Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4732544-the-house-of-rothschild](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/4732544-the-house-of-rothschild) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
