Founder Book Reviews
Founder by Amos Elon Book Summary
In this short biography of Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812), historian and journalist Amos Elon describes how the founder of the Rothschild dynasty started out by dealing in rare coins and traveling across Germany while still confined, as a Frankfurt Jew, to its Judengasse. Assisted by his five skilled sons, Rothschild subsequently built up a fortune by helping manage the investments of the Landgrave of Hesse, circumventing Napoleon’s blockade of England and funding Napoleon’s eventual defeat.

“This is a fascinating story.” — The New York Review of Books
“A memorable first biography of a near-mythical founding father.” — Publishers Weekly
“A thoroughly researched, fascinating, and altogether exemplary biography.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Amos Elon’s portrait of the man who fathered a dynasty makes fascinating reading for anyone even mildly interested in money and power and their effects on history. Founder is a rich and colorful examination of [Meyer Amschel Rothschild]” — Morley Safer
“Elon’s book... is a thoroughly researched and absorbing biography.” — St. Louis Jewish Light
“A biography that’s a must read for today’s entrepreneurs.” — Houston Chronicle
