See also: Baron Grimthorpe

The Edmund Beckett, 1st Baron Grimthorpe bibliography contains a list of works authored by Edmund Beckett, 1st Baron Grimthorpe, noted "lawyer, mechanician and controversialist".[1]

The author has been cited as an example of the bibliographical difficulties surrounding a subject whose name changes multiple times over their career.[2][3] Born Edmund Beckett Denison 1816, he changed his name to Edmund Beckett when he succeeded to the Baronetcy in 1874, and changed again to Baron Grimthorpe when raised to the peerage in 1886.[4] This bibliography follows the conventions used by the underlying sources.

Ferriday's biography[5] lists all of Grimthorpe's books as well as providing a selection of letters written to the editors of the The Times and other publications.
