Chapter Chapter 3 in Jacob Schiff and the Art of Risk, 2018, pp 75-107 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The area of FrankfurtFrankfurt where Schiff was born in 1847 was the epicentre of the Jewish community in that city, and, due to restrictions on Jewish ownership of property, houses had historically been partitioned to allow for multiple families to live under one roof. Intriguingly, a property his family had occupied a century before Schiff was born had also been owned and lived in by an earlier generation of the Rothschilds.
