In this new Cambridge Texts edition it appears for the first time in its original (1867) book version, with Bagehots original conclusion, and the substantial introduction written for the second edition of 1872. Paul Smiths introduction places Bagehots views in the context of contemporary events and prevalent views of the working of the constitution, indicating their relation to his developing ideas on the anthropological and sociological springs of authority.

Review "Helpful yet unobtrusive, Smiths is an ideal introduction for those seeking to locate Bagehot in the context of his time or for those looking for an informed summary of his argument, motivation, and general purpose." Adam Tomkins, University of Oxford, Constitutional Commentary "This is one of those rare, intelligent treasures that one cherishes...In essence this is the ideal instrument for teaching about Bagehots view of the Constitution. This edition is far more useful for the classroom."
