About the Author
Walter Bagehot was an English journalist, businessman, and essayist who lived from 1826 to 1877. He was a prolific writer who wrote extensively about government, economics, literature, and race. He is best known for co-founding the National Review in 1855, a political magazine that aimed to promote conservative values. Bagehot's most famous works include The English Constitution, published in 1867, and Lombard Street: A Description of the Money Market, published in 1873. The English Constitution is considered one of the best accounts of the history and workings of the British political system ever written, while Lombard Street is a detailed analysis of the money market and the role of central banks in regulating it. Bagehot's writing style is characterized by its clarity, concision, and analytical rigor. He was a skilled observer of society and human behavior, and his insights into politics, economics, and culture continue to be relevant today.
