Macaulay\'s political writings are famous for their ringing prose and for their confident, sometimes dogmatic, emphasis on a progressive model of British history. This Whiggish philosophy appears most clearly in the essays Macaulay wrote for the Edinburgh Review, which were collected in book form and becamea steady bestseller throughout the nineteenth century.
