About this book
A young English nobleman, disillusioned with society, embarks on a spiritual quest to the Holy Land in search of faith and meaning, encountering adventure, romance, and grand ideas about religion, race, and the destiny of nations. The final novel in Disraeli's 'Young England' trilogy blends exotic travel, philosophy, and political vision in a distinctive, ambitious romance. Colorful and idea-driven, Tancred reflects its author's fascination with the East, faith, and the regeneration of a jaded civilization. Unusual and thought-provoking, it fuses adventure with grand speculation, offering a window into the mind of a future Prime Minister who dreamed of reconciling the ancient and the modern, the spiritual and the political.
