Amazon.com description: Product Description: 1929. After the death of his wife, when he was almost seventy years old, Disraeli found again two charming sisters whom he had known-Anne, Countess of Chesterfield, and Selina, Countess of Bradford. They were Lord Forester's daughters. Both of them were grandmothers but Lady Bradford was still a coquette while her sister had accepted old age and was a tender and serious grandmother. While Lady Chesterfield may have been better suited to the part of friend of the party leader and prime minister, Disraeli devoted himself passionately to the conquest of Lady Bradford, who escaped him. He allowed himself to be consoled by Lady Chesterfield. From 1873 until his death, he wrote the two sisters about sixteen hundred letters-five hundred to Lady Chesterfield and the rest to Lady Bradford. These letters, which are published in these volumes, form a most interesting document for both historical study of those times and intimate information about Disraeli.
