Henri de Rothschild, 1872–1947

This is a fascinating and vividly written study of Henri de Rothschild, a somewhat neglected figure in the history of the illustrious Rothschild family. It will make a valuable addition to the libraries of scholars from several branches of the history of medicine and those studying child health and welfare, the portrayal of doctors in literature, and more broadly the social and cultural life of early-twentieth century Paris.
