About

A narrative of Lloyd’s evolution from Edward Lloyd’s 17th century coffee house into the world’s leading marine insurance market.

The author emphasises the personalities, scandals, and institutional habits that shaped its culture, along with the gradual formalisation of underwriting practices. Straus blends anecdote with history, showing how maritime expansion, war, and commercial risk forged Lloyd’s distinctive system of brokers, syndicates, and individual underwriters.

Includes monochrome images and fine line illustrations.
