Bagehot was one of the first writers to describe and explain the world of international and corporate finance, banking, and money in understandable language.
The book was in part a reaction to the 1866 collapse of Overend, Gurney and Company, located at 65 Lombard Street, from which the title draws its name.
Bagehots description, and knowledge is timeless and a must for anyone who wants to understand our money market and economy.
