""Arthur James Balfour V1: First Earl of Balfour 1848-1906"" is a biography of Arthur James Balfour, a prominent British politician and statesman who served as Prime Minister from 1902 to 1905. Written by Blanche E. C. Dugdale, the book covers Balfour's life from his birth in 1848 to his death in 1930, with a focus on his political career and his role in shaping British foreign policy during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book examines Balfour's early years, his education at Eton and Cambridge, his entry into politics, and his rise through the ranks of the Conservative Party.
