The English Constitution - Walter Bagehot - Bog

Written in 1867, The English Constitution remains the best account of the history and working of the British political system. Blending wit, humour, history, and anecdote, its analysis of the monarchy, the role of the prime minister and cabinet, and comparisons with the American presidential system are astute and timeless. This is the only edition currently in print and uses the original 1867 edition.
