Mr Grant presents Bagehot as a man rather than just as an editor: as a supplicant who forged a close relationship with James Wilson, the founder of The Economist; as a lover who successfully wooed Wilson's eldest daughter, Eliza, with perfectly crafted letters; as a husband who ate seven meals a day ("with a snack in the interstices") and spent beyond his means; as a failed parliamentary candidate, getting barracked as he delivered lofty speeches and even indulging in a bit of bribery, despite denouncing graft in the pages of his newspaper; as an inveterate leg-puller who once wrote a 51-word sentence in praise of the contention that "short views and clear sentences" were the coming thing in English letters.
