About the author
Born at Rothley Temple in Leicestershire on October 25, 1800, Thomas Babington Macaulay studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he distinguished himself as a classical scholar, debater, and writer. His essays for the Edinburgh Review brought him early fame, and he soon became one of the most prominent literary and political voices of Victorian Britain.
Macaulay served as a Whig member of Parliament, Secretary at War, and Paymaster General, and later joined the Governor-General’s Council in India. He is best known for The History of England from the Accession of James the Second, admired for its energetic style though criticized for its strong Whig perspective. He was created Baron Macaulay in 1857 and died in London on December 28, 1859, leaving his major historical work unfinished.
