The sixth great power barings 1762 1929 by Philip Ziegler

A captivating history of the Baring family, one of Britain’s greatest banking dynasties, told by acclaimed biographer Philip Ziegler (author of Mountbatten and biographies of King George VI and Edward VIII). The title comes from a remark attributed to Cardinal Richelieu, who is said to have named England, France, Prussia, Austria, Russia, and Baring Brothers among the six great powers of the world.

Across more than 430 richly documented pages, illustrated with portrait plates, Ziegler traces the rise of this family bank at the heart of international finance and diplomacy, from its founding in 1762 through to 1929 — the year John Baring, the second Lord Revelstoke, died after taking over the firm following the Baring Crisis of 1890.
