New York, NY: Ticknor & Fields, 1991. 1st Ed 1st Pr. Hardbound. 8vo. 66 Pgs.. Fine in Good DJ/Good. Mostly Morgenthaus, A Family History by Henry Morgenthau III. Published by Ticknor & Fields, New York, NY, 1991. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardbound. Paper DJ. Size 8vo (up to 9-1/2'' tall). Condition: Fine in Good DJ. 501 Pgs. ISBN 0899199763. LCCN 90-32445. Sprinkled with backroom revelations of the New Deal, this dramatic family saga focuses on three patriarchs, each driven by a sense of destiny. German cigarmaker Lazarus Morgenthau (1815-1897), financially overextended, moved to New York in 1866, where his fortunes plummeted further. His son, Henry (1856-1946), saw his mission as restoring the family to its rightful position. As Wilson's ambassador to Turkey, he supported the Jews in Palestine and heroically rescued Armenians persecuted by the Turks. Henry Jr. (1891-1967), the author's father, was loyal courtier of FDR, secretary of the Treasury and leader of U.S. efforts on behalf of Holocaust survivors. Morgenthau III casts doubt on the alleged Communist associations of his father's Treasury aide Harry Dexter White, whom Whittaker Chambers accused of being a Soviet spy and conspirator. This history of a resilient family includes closeups of FDR, Al Smith, Ike, Eleanor Roosevelt and the author's brother, Manhattan district attorney Robert Morgenthau. Illustrated with black & white photos. Description text copyright 2013 BooksForComfort. Item ID 28183., Ticknor & Fields, 1991, 3.75<
