LION AND THE UNICORN: GLADSTONE VS DISRAELI

"Gladstone and Disraeli were the fiercest political rivals of the modern age. Their intense hatred was ideological and deeply personal. Victorian Britain ruled the oceans and vast territories 'on which the sun never set'. The vitriolic duel between Gladstone and Disraeli was nothing less than a battle to lead the richest and most powerful nation on earth. Richard Aldous gives us the first modern telling of this dramatic story of an intense and momentous rivalry."--BOOK JACKET.
