Debate on Standing Army vs Land Force in the Daily Courant
A polemical defense of the Army against D Anvers and Craftsman arguments. The author distinguishes a Standing Army from a Land Force, arguing Parliament controls a National Guard for defense while a Standing Army is an instrument of arbitrary power. The piece rebuts claims of inevitable tyranny and defends the Crown and Parliament's integrity, noting historical contrasts and urging vigilance against faction.
