Alroy: The Prince of the Captivity by Benjamin Disraeli
“Being at Jerusalem in the year 1831, and visiting the traditionary tombs of the Kings of Israel, my thoughts recurred to a personage whose marvellous career had, even in boyhood, attracted my attention, as one fraught with the richest materials of poetic fiction. and I then commenced these pages that should commemorate the name of Alroy. In the twelfth century, when he arose, this was the political condition of the East” -Author’s Preface
