This book demonstrates that the Balfour Declaration--the British
decision to establish a Jewish homeland in postwar Palestine made
on November 2, 1917 -- was the culmination of over 60 years of
active preoccupation with Jewish culture and history among the
British elite. Among these activists were the social reformer Lord
Shaftesbury, the statesman Benjamin Disraeli, the novelist George
Eliot, the archaeologist Charles Warren, and the romantic
adventurer Laurence Oliphant. This study demonstrates how
admiration for Judaism among the British elite influenced their
actions and even their view of the world.
