Disraeli
A look at Paul Bloomfields' Biography

     Benjamin Disraeli was born in London on December 21, 1804, and after a full life, at the age of 77 years old, he died on April 19, 1881. He was a two time Prime Minister as well as an author and was also the first Earl of Beaconsfield.
     This author was very difficult to research.  I looked in several different on-line library catalogs as well as all over the Internet and I could not find out anything about Paul Bloomfield.  I was not able to find any information about the author's profession or any pieces he may have previously written.
     This biography is organized in a very traditional fashion.  Each chapter tells about a different time period.  The chapters are in chronological order with very few references to the previous chapters.  The first chapter is an introduction that aquaints the reader with what is going on at the time of Disraelis' life.  It tells a little about his parents, his family and also includes a small family tree.  There were five major events made evident in this biography.

He went to school to become a politician.  The writing was something he used to occupy himself.  It was merely coincidence that he was very good at it.
He started as a chancellor in Edward Stanley's minority government.  Then when Stanley resigned he became the Prime Minister.  Disraeli was proud of this position but it didn't last long.  He was quickly defeated in the general election.
     The next major point was about his term in the congress of Berlin.  This was a small congress made so that Europe could think of ways to help regroup the country from several conflicts with Russia and Turkey.  In 1868 he gave a major contribution to European peace by having several fine ideas to help avoid further conflict.
     The last major point made was Disraeli's defeat in 1880.  He was defeated by a man named William Gladstone.  After his defeat he decided to retire.
     To me this easy, simple method of organization was a good one.  There were many dates involved in this book so it was easy to follow.  It would have been confusing if Bloomfield had jumped around from date t...
