Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton, PC (25 May 1803 � 18 January 1873) was an English writer and politician. He declined the Crown of Greece in 1862 after the abdication of King Otto. He became Baron Lytton of Knebworth in 1866. Bulwer-Lytton's works were highly popular and paid him well. He coined the phrases "the great unwashed", "pursuit of the almighty dollar", "the pen is mightier than the sword", and "dweller on the threshold". "It was a dark and stormy night".is possibly one of the best opening lines of a novel. Will require extra postage overseas.
