  • The English Constitution

    In one of Walter Bagehot's most prominent works, the English constitution is described, not from law books and as a lawyer would describe it, but from the actual working, as Bagehot himself had witnessed it, in his contact with ministers and the heads of government departments, and with the life of the society in which the politicians moved. The true springs and method of action are consequently ... Read more

A notion prevails that the Money Market is something so impalpable that it can only be spoken of in very abstract words, and that therefore books on it must always be exceedingly difficult. But I maintain that the Money ... Read more

  • The English Constitution

    The challenge facing Walter Bagehot while writing the essays that became his study of The English Constitution is that, infamously, there is no "English constitution," at least, not one that has ever been written down. The government of Great Britain and Ireland, in Bagehot's day, is the result of centuries of evolution, and so is the product of custom, precedent, reform, and a great degree of ... Read more
