Ihre Dinnerpartys waren legendär, sie haben Wahlkämpfe choreographiert, sich für soziale Reformen eingesetzt, an der Börse gehandelt und wissenschaftlich geforscht. Hinter den Kulissen hielten sie die Fäden in der Hand, aber in Erscheinung traten immer nur ihre Männer: die Frauen der mächtigen Rothschilds. Die Biographien dieser charismatischen Personen lässt die Historikerin Natalie Livingstone nun in ihrem Buch wieder aufleben. Beginnend mit Gutle Rotschild, der Mutter der Dynastie, beschreibt sie die faszinierenden Lebensgeschichten der bislang unterschätzen Seite der Familie. Entstanden ist nicht nur eine Würdigung, sondern ein völlig neuer Blick auf 200 Jahre europäischer Geschichte.
