In 1824, Disraeli toured Belgium and the Rhine Valley with his father and later wrote that it was while travelling on the Rhine that he decided to abandon the law: " I determined when descending those magical waters that I would not be a lawyer.
On his return to England he speculated on the stock exchange on various South American mining companies.
The recognition of the new South American republics on the recommendation of George Canning had led to a considerable boom, encouraged by various promoters.
In the course of 1825, Disraeli wrote three anonymous pamphlets for Powles, promoting the companies.
