Alroy: The Prince of the Captivity by Earl of Beaconsfield Benjamin Disraeli
"Alroy: The Prince of the Captivity" by Benjamin Disraeli is a novel originally published in 1833. This fictionalised tale follows young David Alroy, who flees after killing a governor and embarks on a quest to find Solomon's sceptre and restore Jewish greatness. His journey leads him through desert dangers, forbidden love with a caliph's daughter, and military triumph. But as ambition clashes with tradition and loyalty fractures, Alroy must face whether personal
desire can coexist with his destined role as liberator. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
