France in Hard Times and War's Enduring Straits
A reader refutes Paris propagandists and recalls Bishop Burnet and Boyle on French misery and resilience. The critique traces France’s repeated recoveries, Louis XIV’s despotism, and the broader European balance of power, warning Britain against overreach and urging cautious, costly resistance to tyranny. It notes needful strategic caution amid ongoing conflicts and Jamaica-bound ships.
