First published in 1938, The British Constitution discusses the basic features of the British Constitution. The author argues that the Constitution is more than a body of institutions working in accordance with principles laid down in law or expressed in conventions. It is society in its political aspect. In addition to the features of the Constitution, the book also explains the functions of the House of Commons, the House of Lords, the King, the Cabinet, the parties, the administration and the armed forces. This book will be of interest to anyone keen on learning about the British Constitution as well as students of political science and history
