"For over fifty years Siegmund Warburg was a legend in banking around the world, associated with every major financial development from Germany's First World War reparations' payments to the Eurodollars of the 1960s and 1970s. A man whose first ambition to be a politician was wrecked by Hitler's seizure of power, Siegmund became an undoubted influence from throughout his life on politicians from Washington to Tokyo and Cairo. A banker who regarded money as completely secondary and who would rather real Trollope than a business report, Siegmund Warburg came from a long line of German Jewish bankers. Their fascinating history is intervowen in this book with Siegmund Warburg's life story and with the finances of Europe and America, through periods of glittering success and influence to his ultimately poignant death in 1982, last of the dynasty".
